The Place to Go for LTPP Data and Information

The new Long-Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) Information Center at the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center in McLean, Virginia, is now your source for LTPP data, information, and assistance.

The LTPP program's Information Management System server was successfully transferred from Oak Ridge, Tennessee, to the LTPP Information Center in spring 2008, consolidating the LTPP Database Network. This network includes the Pavement Performance Database, Central Traffic Database, and the Ancillary Information Management System. The Information Center's components also include the LTPP Reference Library, which contains documentation on LTPP planning, data collection guidelines, testing procedures, and data processing and storage. The library also features research reports, test site construction and installation reports, and information on LTPP products and their supporting documentation. The LTPP Customer Support Service Center, meanwhile, provides a single point of contact and technical assistance for users of the world's largest pavement performance database.
