Abstract:

Coronavirus (COVID-19) has proven a formidable adversary worldwide, with tremendous impact on the United States. The transportation system is an essential element of our response to this pandemic but has also been significantly impacted across all modes, both passenger and goods movement. This environment is where research is needed most. This report details meetings with high-level participants who developed a research agenda that can assist research funding agencies in prioritizing research activities and funding. On April 29, 2020, TRB convened an online meeting of high-level participants to help identify potential issues that could be addressed in a research agenda for COVID-19–related transportation topics. The broad range of research questions identified are organized by: Operations, Resilience, and Disaster Recovery; Supply Chain and Goods Movement; Changes in Demand, Transportation Planning, and Data; Social Justice, Access, and Mobility Equity; Effects on Economics, Revenues, and Costs (Including Stimulus); Governance and Roles During a Pandemic, and Public Health.
