A COMMITMENT TO COOPERATION. SPECIAL REPORT

Through a series of ongoing meetings, the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI) and the transportation consultants in Texas have worked together to better understand the proper role for a large, university-based research program. This paper reviews how three interested parties--TTI; the Consulting Engineers Council of Texas, which represents over 300 consulting firms; and the Consultants Council of the Texas Section of the Institute of Transportation Engineers, which represents 27 consulting firms--collaborated to openly address possible issues and concerns. The paper may provide a framework to be followed in other states.
