Dear Colleagues:
I am contacting you in your capacity as highly networked transportation types. Can you please support TRB’s co-sponsorship of BTR#6 by distributing the following Call for Papers to your TRB committee members & friends?
This globally impactful, cost-free, carbon-free Bridging Transportation Researchers (BTR) conference is now in its 6th year. BTR is co-sponsored by COTA, TRB, ARRB, IATBR, UT Austin, and others. We had Pat Mokhtarian, Kay Axhausen, Maya Abou Zeid & Graham Currie as headline speakers last year (2 in eastern + 2 in western hemisphere). We have already lined up two of our four fabulous headliners for August 7 & 8, 2024; and we need your help in soliciting paper submissions. Would you mind forwarding these details to any & all transportation enthusiasts you know? THANK YOU.
We look forward to another year of excellent BTR presentations! This year’s paper submission deadline is March 31, 2024. 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. All manuscripts should be written in English (& <10,000 words, including references) and submitted (w/o author names showing) via EasyChair. (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 recent published work for presentation at BTR.) Papers can be in any transportation-related area including, but not limited to:
- Public transport & 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, & anything else transportation related!
Please register today & join us online August 7 & 8, 2024, for two days of multi-track Zoom-based meetings. 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 are obtained from authors prior to scheduling.
Thanks so much for your support & helping connect our world, without emissions, visa hurdles, cost, or much effort.
