The Educational and Research centre in Transport of the Faculty of Transport Engineering, University of Pardubice was developed in a project sponsored by EU structural funds, state budget of the Czech Republic and funds of the University of Pardubice. The aim was to establish a strategic centre for development of teaching and research activities of the faculty with the use of modern equipment. Existing heavy labs in the university campus had limited capacity, unsuitable location and were not sufficiently equipped. Thus, new facilities were developed in the university's Technology centre in Doubravice; existing lab equipment was moved to the new building and a multitude of new, modern technologies were purchased.
