HANOVER A Randolph company is getting more than $5 million for a Hanover-based U.S. Army Corps of Engineers research project examining the effects of extreme cold on different kinds of roadways and airstrips.
The U.S. Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory in Hanover is providing the funding to Applied Research Associates of Randolph. It’s part of a $9 million contract to develop and install a transportation loading system at the frost effects research facility at the CRREL site on Route 10 in Hanover.
The system, which won’t be fully operational until 2023, will be designed to simulate the passage of tens of thousands of vehicles in a 24-hour period to demonstrate how different pavements stand up to heavy usage at freezing temperatures.

Applied Research Associates tapped to provide the Army’s Cold Regions Research and Engineering Lab with a new test bed to study the impact of cold weather on key transportation infrastructures
Vermont Business Magazine US Senators Patrick Leahy (D-Vermont) and Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) announced Friday that Applied Research Associates (ARA) of Randolph, Vermont, has received an award totaling $5,237,915 from the US Army Corps of Engineers Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL), through the System of Systems Consortium.
This initial award gets work under way on a total contract worth more than $9 million to develop and install a transportation loading system inside the Army’s Frost Effects Research Facility (FERF) in Hanover, NH, the country’s largest refrigerated warehouse designed to investigate, test, and evaluate the effects of extremely cold ambient and ground temperatures on different kinds of roadways and airstrips.
