Arizona ITE is once more hosting its Summer Breakfast Series and ITS Arizona is again co-sponsoring this great series. This year’s theme is focused on university research.
Dr. Brendan Russo, Assistant Professor of Civil Engineering at NAU will kick off the series on June 20th as he discusses current and recent transportation research at NAU. Topics will include application of vehicle-based sensors for assessing pavement conditions, development of a resilience metric for bridge management, Arizona dust storm modeling and prediction, analysis of factors affecting the frequency and severity of freight-related crashes along the Arizona I-10 corridor, and analysis of the impacts of distracted pedestrians on traffic safety and operations at signalized intersections.
Next in the series is an update from The University of Arizona on July 25th by Dr. Yi-Chang Chiu and from Arizona State University on August 22nd by Dr. Ram Pendyala.
