Abstract
OTREC researchers helped state transportation department staff members face a problem that isn’t strictly part of their job description: how best to deal with homeless individuals and households living in DOT rights of way and rest areas.
OTREC researchers examine the human relations impact of transportation and land management decisions involving homeless encampments.
