General Information

Welcome to the Home Page of the Nottingham Transportation Engineering Centre (NTEC) - part of the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Nottingham. We are the UK's foremost University research centre focused on the materials and objects that provide the central elements of all highways, railways, docks and airports, and are well-known throughout the world for our pavement research. Formerly the Nottingham Centre for Pavement Engineering (with over 50 years of continuous pavement engineering research that commenced in 1954) we changed our name to reflect a broadening of activities into airfield, port and other specialist pavements, railway track, performance and asset management, risk analysis, sustainable construction, environmental impact and transport systems.

This web site will allow you to find out more about our current research, our teaching capabilities, our commercial services, our publications and our people.
