The VTrans 2023 Hybrid Research and Innovation Symposium was postponed due to the July 2023 flooding in Vermont. To continue to share our research, VTrans is gathering Fact Sheets and other information about multiple projects to put together a Symposium Substitute Report and Symposium Lite webpages for each project. The Symposium Substitute Report is linked at the bottom of this page.
