Getting Involved

There are three ways your organization can work with TERRA to advance road research:

1. Join TERRA by making a commitment of resources, either in-kind or monetary, over a sustained period of time. With membership on the TERRA Board, your organization will have the opportunity to:

• Define research needs of members.
• Choose high-priority potential projects.
• Solicit research funds and project funding partners.
• Participate in planning the reconstruction of the Mn/ROAD test facility.
• Sponsor marketing, communication, and outreach activities for member organizations on research results and implementation.

2. Partner with TERRA as a participant in specific research projects. As TERRA grows, the Board is seeking to bring together stakeholders from industry, government, and academia to join in projects initiated by TERRA members. Twelve project proposals for upcoming MnROAD research can be found at http://www.pooledfund.org (search on Keyword: MnROAD).

3. Become a Friend of TERRA and receive periodic updates on TERRA activities, new research opportunities, and research findings.
