New England University Transportation Center

The New England Regional UTC (NEUTC) is a varied, multidisciplinary consortium committed to addressing the pressing issue of traffic safety. Our objective, in line with the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), is to drive transformative research, education, and technology transfer to address critical traffic safety needs in a time when roadway fatalities are distressingly high.

Center Themes

Our research and educational activities at NEUTC are guided by four principal safety themes, each addressing a critical challenge in transportation safety. These themes capture the various integral components of the transportation system, focusing on technology, infrastructure, vehicles, and users with a commitment to fairness and public engagement. Our overarching theme is promoting safety, with the common underlying science being the study of behavioral, systemic, environmental, and mobility-driven factors on safety.
