Indian Academy of Highway Engineers (IAHE) on Friday inked an MoU with the University of New South Wales (UNSW) to set up a new centre to boost global innovations into the transportation sector.
The Centre for Advanced Transportation Technology and Systems (CATTS) will accelerate the evaluation and adoption of new transportation technologies and explore market opportunities in India and Australia.
