The Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) research report is the key document for a researcher to present research results, transfer knowledge to users, and encourage possibilities to implement research. If these aims are to be achieved, it is important for report authors to produce a well-organized and clearly-written document. The Mn/DOT Office of Research Administration (ORA) has developed this document, General Guidelines for the Publication of Research Reports, to aid the author in writing and constructing the research report. Following the guidelines will also ensure the quality and consistency of presentation in all Mn/DOT research reports.
