Have a Research Idea?
Submit your idea to the NJ Transportation Ideas Portal!

NJDOT’s Bureau of Research, Innovation & Information Transfer (BRIIT) gathers and shares research ideas from research customers and other transportation stakeholders.

BRIIT supports research that leads to real-world implementation—whether through the adoption of new materials, the improvement of specifications, or the advancement of efficiency across the transportation system. The goal is to identify and develop feasible solutions that support more durable infrastructure, environmental resilience, and improved mobility and safety for all who travel in New Jersey.
