TuxReportWebFrame

Long-form, web-hosted narrative canvas. The screen-native sibling of TuxReportFrame: same Reports family (finished narrative, read top-to-bottom), but rendered as an HTML web page rather than a paper-sized sheet. Reach for it when the deliverable lives at a permanent URL on tti.tamu.edu or a program microsite (annual reports, research findings, accreditation summaries).

Distinct from Visualizations: a web-hosted report is still read, not pivoted. If the reader is meant to filter, drill, or slice data, use a Visualization.

Sponsored research — TTI corridor program

A web-hosted summary of corridor program work, written for sponsors and the public. Distinct from the printed quarterly: this version lives at a permanent URL and updates between print cycles.

Executive summary

FY26 Q1 closed with awarded funding 12.4% above the same quarter in FY25, driven primarily by a $9.2M IH-35 corridor-safety renewal from TxDOT and a $4.8M FHWA work-zone classifier grant. Headcount on sponsored projects rose 6.1%; equipment capex held steady.

The headline metric: 412 active projects across the corridor program, a record for the institute in any single quarter.

TxDOT share

Crash-rate reductions held in three of four corridors under active retrofit; the fourth (US-290 between Hempstead and Brenham) showed a 4% rise associated with construction-zone congestion, consistent with modeling. The interim signage refresh is on track for completion in the May steering review.

Methods

All metrics use TxDOT CRIS-2 records joined against the TTI corridor classifier. Confidence intervals are bootstrap percentile (B = 2,000) at the 95% level.

Data and methods

Source datasets, classifier versions, and reproducibility pointers live in the program's Corridor workspace. Sponsor access is provisioned via Entra ID; public extracts are published to data.tti.tamu.edu in CSV and Parquet.

What's next

Q2 work continues on the classifier-refresh roadmap and the FHWA work-zone deliverables. The next public update lands at the end of the fiscal quarter.

Three Editorial Reading Measures

Digital reading comprehension drops steeply past ~75 characters per line due to saccadic eye fatigue. TuxReportWebFrame enforces strict character measures through CSS ch units and container queries:

Width PropMax MeasureReading RhythmRecommended Content
narrowmax-width: 56chFast scan, dense narrativePolicy briefs, legislative position memos, executive summaries, interviews
defaultmax-width: 70chOptimal editorial standardAnnual institute reports, research discoveries, academic articles, general long-form

Sticky Table of Contents & Scroll-Spy

SSR-Safe Anchor Fallback

Passing the :toc="toc" prop supplies static anchor links for web crawlers, search engines, and non-JavaScript readers. When JavaScript mounts, TuxTOC in the #toc slot takes over with smooth scroll-spy indicators.

Container-Queried Rail

At container widths above 60rem, the frame automatically switches to a two-column grid (minmax(0, 1fr) 14rem) and anchors the TOC with position: sticky; top: 5rem. On smaller screens, the rail tucks away cleanly.

Choosing Between Report Primitives

  • TuxReportFrame: Deliverable leaves the app on physical paper or PDF. Fixed 8.5×11 or A4 canvas with page breaks and print shadows.
  • TuxReportPrintSheet: Any existing interactive view needs a "Print" button that cleanly removes chrome and paginates without changing the route.
  • TuxReportWebFrame: Deliverable lives at a permanent web URL (e.g., tti.tamu.edu/reports/corridor-2026) with responsive cover, reading metrics, and TOC.
  • Visualizations: Reader interacts, filters, or pivots data. Reports are read linearly; visualizations are explored dynamically.
