CEDR transnational road research programme: call 2012

National Roads Authority (NRA)

This call for proposals entitled CEDR transnational road research programme call 2012 is launched by the National Roads Authority (NRA) of Ireland behalf of the Conference of European Directors of Roads (CEDR). The content of this call for proposals was developed by CEDR members to fulfil the common interests of various European road administrations. The participating countries are Belgium (Flanders), Denmark, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden and UK. The NRA will take on the role of programme manager: this will include organising the call for proposals, programme coordination, financial governance and general project management. As in previous collaborative research programmes, the participating members will establish a programme executive board (PEB) made up of experts in the topics to be covered: the PEB will act as a steering committee for the programme.
The call for proposals involves four separate research programmes covering the following topics:
โ€” Recycling: road construction in a post-fossil fuel society,
โ€” Noise: integrating strategic noise management into the operation and maintenance of national road networks,
โ€” Safety: safety of road workers and interaction with road users: use of vehicle restraint systems,
โ€” Road owners adapting to climate change.
Full details of each of these programmes are provided in the attached Description of Research Needs (DoRNs). Additional information for applicants is available in the attached "Guide for Applicants".
