ATRC Visioning Survey

Help Re-Envision California's ATRC

The ATRC team is asking for your input as to how they can best support active transportation efforts in communities of all sizes and types in California.

Please help by completing this survey by April 30, 2024

The ATRC’s mission is to provide resources, technical assistance, and training to transportation partners across California to increase the opportunity for the success of active transportation projects. The ATRC is funded by an Active Transportation Program (ATP) grant and is administered by Caltrans. The ATRC utilizes a combination of subject matter experts from state agencies, universities, and consultants to support ATP applicants, ATP recipients, and others working to improve active transportation across the state.

FREE WEBINAR: Innovations in 

Rubberized Asphalt Pavement Design

Join the Caltrans Division of Research, Innovation & System Information (DRISI) for this free 1 hour webinar where UC Davis presenters John Harvey and David Jones share research evaluating the Rubberized Hot Mix Asphalt-gap Graded (RHMA-G) layer thickness limits.

Thursday April 18th, 2024, 10am – 11am PT

Current Caltrans guidelines restrict RHMA-G to surface layers due to cost and rutting concerns. However, recent advancements have mitigated these issues, making RHMA-G cost-competitive with conventional mixes and improving rutting performance.

After the presentation, the webinar will be open for questions.
