You don't often get email from kkoc...@mail.utexas.edu. Learn why this is important |
Dear colleagues:
We hope your April is going great, and we really appreciate your & your teammates participating in past Bridging Transportation Researcher (BTR) conferences. Please, can you alert your TRB Committee members & friends to the following details? TRB remains a key BTR co-sponsor, but can advertise just once a year in its newsletter (which happened 2 months ago). So we rely on YOU (TRB committee chairs!) to help us get the word out.
Please, can you simply forward the following to your Members & Friends (+ colleagues, students, sponsors … even neighbors & family members, who may be interested in learning more about what we do in transportation)?
There are just 13 days left for receipt of everyone’s submissions for this year’s carbon-free, cost-free BTR#6 conference! As usual, we have loads of stellar sponsors: TRB & ARRB, UT Austin & MIT Mobility Forum, … plus amazing headliners (India’s Geetam Tiwari, Japan’s Toshiyuki Yamamoto, USA’s Susan Handy, & Denmark’s Francisco Pereira: https://bridgingtransport.org/btr6-headline-speakers/).
Paper Submission deadline: April 30, 2023 + Conference Dates: August 7 & 8, 2024
At zero cost, and practically zero carbon, BTR brings transportation engineers, planners, & policymakers together globally by removing the burden of travel, the cost of registration, & greenhouse gases associated with transport & accommodations. We welcome researchers and practitioners from diverse disciplines, particularly individuals who are unable to obtain a visa or afford traveling to and participating in international conferences.
Please join us online August 7 & 8, for two days of multi-track Zoom-based meetings (both eastern & western hemisphere programs, so you’re always wide awake for a suite of sessions!). Zoom links & session details (with 20- to 30-minute presentation slots) will be sent to all registrants, after papers are submitted & reviewed and final topics are scheduled. Presentation time-zone preferences will be obtained from authors prior to scheduling.
All manuscripts should be written in English (& <10,000 words, including references) and submitted (w/o author names showing) via email, as described here: https://bridgingtransport.org/blog/paper-submission/. BTR does not have proceedings, and submitting your work to BTR does not prevent you from submitting it to journals. You can also submit your past/published work for presentation at BTR.
Papers can be in any transportation-related area including, but not limited to:
- Public transportation
- Emerging mobility services (shared, electrified)
- Intelligent transportation systems
- Connected and automated vehicle operations & control
- Travel demand modeling
- Freight transportation
- Transportation safety
- Infrastructure management
- Design, construction, & pavement engineering
- What else? You can be creative! What do transportation researchers & practitioners need to know?
Thanks so much for getting your submissions in soon (& conference registrations too 😉). Please do us a favor of forwarding this on.
