Calls for papers posted!

[Stephanie Dock]

Members and Friends of the Major Cities Committee,

The committee’s call for papers for the 2018 Annual Meeting has been posted! Many thanks to all who proposed ideas for the calls this year. We are a bit behind in posting these this year, so we know you probably will not start a new paper to respond. But if you already started a paper that is related, responding to our call will help direct the paper to our committee. The topic areas we are interested in are:

• The Local Economic Impacts of Transportation Investments
  
• From Tangle to Tango: Unraveling the Confusion of State and Local Processes in Capital Programming
• Innovations in Transit Fare Payments
  

See the calls for all the details! You can also find the call in the committee documents and all of the calls on the TRB site.

As a reminder, papers are due August 1! And don't forget to sign up as a reviewer, per the email from Deb Lightman yesterday.

Happy writing and reviewing,

Stephanie

ABE30 Committee Communications Coordinator

All - I had an error in my link below to the TRB list of the call for papers. Go here instead: https://annualmeeting.mytrb.org/CallForPapers/index. You can find our calls by searching for "ABE30" in the primary sponsoring committee list.

Members and Friends of the Major Cities Committee -  

 

Please note that the original paper description for the paper call "The Local Economic Impacts of Transportation Investments" was incorrect. The call description in the link Stephanie sent this morning has since been revised. Please revisit the link to see the correct call description! 

 

Apologies for the initial confusion, and we look forward to seeing what papers we receive!

Aimee
