Transportation Engineering + Planning

Transportation Engineering + Planning

Transportation Engineering and Planning at U of T combines scientific analysis and the use of technology to inform the planning, functional design, operation and management of transportation infrastructure and monitoring systems. Our researchers work collectively and collaboratively under the umbrella of the University of Toronto Transportation Research Institute (UTTRI) and its affiliated research clusters.

Affiliated Institute

University of Toronto Transportation Research Institute

UTTRI is a new initiative of the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Toronto. Through UTTRI, both the Department and the University aspire to take a lead role in contributing to the development of liveable, sustainable, healthy and prosperous city regions, beginning with our own Greater Toronto and Hamilton Region. Building upon our research expertise and working relationships with both the public and private sectors, UTTRI will bring the considerable depth and breadth of University of Toronto research to bear on real-world urban transportation problems.
