Take a Tour!

Open House: Thursday, October 8, 2009

Come anytime from 4 to 7 p.m., and take a 60 – 90 minute tour of VTTI's research facilities which will include a brief presentation, a look at our Control Room, and our instrumented vehicles. You will also experience our all–weather testing capabilities with a ride through a simulated rain event on the Virginia Smart Road. If you plan to attend with a large group, please contact Sherri Box (sbox@vtti.vt.edu) at (540) 231-1549 before the event to ensure adequate resources for your group.

School Day: Thursday, October 8, 2009

At agreed upon times from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., School Day is for students from first grade to college. They will have a chance to see the Virginia Smart Road and VTTI's facilities. The tour lasts 45 – 75 minutes, depending on the grade level of students attending. Students follow an abbreviated schedule of our Open House tours, however they will still experience our all–weather testing capabilities with a ride through a simulated rain event. If you're interested in having your school class or group tour VTTI, please contact Sherri Box (sbox@vtti.vt.edu) at (540) 231-1549. For additional information, download our School Day Brochure.
