The New Jersey Department of Transportation's (NJDOT) Bureau of Research, Innovation and Information Transfer (BRIIT) works directly with university and other research professionals to find workable solutions to problems that affect the safety, mobility and accessibility of New Jersey’s residents, workers, visitors and businesses. The goal is to enhance the quality and cost effectiveness of the policies, practices, standards and specifications that are used in planning, building and maintaining New Jersey's transportation infrastructure.

NJDOT research customers and other interested transportation practitioners (e.g. MPOs, county and local governments, and other transportation subject matter experts from trade, universities, and NGOs) are encouraged to submit research ideas to help inform the next round of research RFPs.

NJDOT research customers may submit a research idea by following the link to the NJDOT Transportation Research Ideas website. Project status, guidelines, formats and forms and useful links to other local, state and national agencies are available here.

The NJDOT’s Innovation Program works to identify, develop, promote, and institutionalize innovative transportation-related ideas, practices, and initiatives within the Department.

The NJDOT Technology Transfer website is also home to New Jersey’s State Transportation Council (STIC). The NJ STIC identifies and rapidly deploys proven, yet underutilized innovations to shorten project delivery, enhance safety, reduce congestion, and improve environmental sustainability.
