TRB Legal Program - NCHRP

NCHRP PROJECT: LEGAL PROBLEMS ARISING FROM TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS

The NCHRP project was initiated in 1968 to assemble, analyze, and evaluate operating practices, administrative procedures, and legal issues associated with highway and transportation projects. It is a continuing study under the direction of the TRB staff Counsel for Legal Research, subject to the guidance of an NCHRP Project Committee.

The Legal Research Digest and Selected Studies in Highway Law are used by attorneys in state departments of transportation and are also available to program officials. See the NCHRP Legal Research Digest for a listing of the digests published to date.
