World Conference on Transport Research Society WCTRS WCTRS provides a forum for the interchange of ideas among transport researchers, managers, policy makers, and educators from all over the world, from a perspective which is multi-modal, multi- disciplinary, and multi-sectoral. The role of the society includes supporting developing countries. The Society has become a primary forum for such international exchanges in transport; the World Conferences are the place where leading transport professionals from all countries and areas convene to learn from one another. The WCTR Conferences 1973: Pre-WCTR in Bruges, Belgium 1977: 1st WCTR in Rotterdam, Netherlands 1980: 2nd WCTR in London, UK 1983: 3rd WCTR in Hamburg, Germany 1986: 4th WCTR in Vancouver, Canada 1989: 5th WCTR in Yokohama, Japan 1992: 6th WCTR in Lyon, France 1995: 7th WCTR in Sydney, Australia 1998: 8th WCTR in Antwerp, Belgium 2001: 9th WCTR in Seoul, Korea 2004: 10th WCTR in Istanbul, Turkey 2007: 11th WCTR in Berkeley, USA 2010: 12th WCTR in Lisbon, Portugal 2013: 13th WCTR in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil 2016: 14th WCTR in Shanghai, China (July 10-15) WCTRS Secretariat Institute for Transport Studies The University of Leeds Leeds LS2 9JT – England Website: A Message from the President It is registered as an international academic and non-profit society under the Swiss Law. It now includes eminent scholars covering all modes of transport, all approaches from engineering, economics to policy making as well as from practice to theory, and all regions from developing, emerging to developed countries. This “Diversity” with “Cooperative bridging between differently characterized people” is the most noteworthy “Asset” of WCTRS, which cannot be found anywhere else in the world. WCTRS aims to utilize the diverse human resources among its outstanding members for the intensive development of new research frontiers and capacity building amongst young scholars and researchers. The President of WCTRS Prof. Yoshitsugu HAYASHI (Nagoya University, Japan) WCTRS (World Conference on Transport Research Society) started in Rotterdam in 1977 as a forum of bridging transport researchers and practitioners Board members President: Yoshi HAYASHI Scientific committee Chair: Manfred BOLTZE Secretary General: Anthony MAY Editors in Chief: Roger VICKERMAN and Rosário MACÀRIO Conference Director: Haixiao PAN

Topic Areas & SIGs Contributions Journals Partners The World Conference on Transport Research Society (WCTRS) Members WCTRS is organized in 8 Topic Areas (TA) and currently 29 Special Interest Groups (SIGs). SIGs are not only organizing session tracks in their field of interest in the WCTR, but also they have a continuous scientific exchange in SIG meetings, are organizing seminars all over the world, editing special issues of journals, and are cooperating with other international organizations. For more detail, please visit our website or contact our secretariat. TA A: Transport Modes: General SIG A1 Air Transport and Airports / ATRS SIG A2 Maritime Transport and Ports SIG A3 Rail Transport TA B: Freight Transport and Logistics SIG B1 Logistics and Supply Chain Management SIG B2 Freight Transport Operations, Sustainability and ITS SIG B3 Intermodal Freight Transport SIG B4 Urban Goods Movement SIG B5 Freight Transport Modelling TA C: Traffic Management, Operations and Control SIG C1 Traffic Theory and Modelling SIG C2 Urban Transport Operations SIG C3 Intelligent Transport Systems SIG C4 Traffic Safety Analysis and Policy SIG C5 Infrastructure Management TA D: Activity and Transport Demand SIG D1* Data Collection and Processing Methods SIG D2 Travel Behaviour and Choice Modelling SIG D3 Applications of Travel Behaviour Analysis and Demand Modelling Approaches SIG D4 ICT Activities and Travel Demand TA E: Transport Economics and Finance SIG E1 Transport System Analysis and Economic Evaluation SIG E3 Transport Economic Regulation TA F: Transport, Land Use and Sustainability SIG F1 Transport and Spatial Development SIG F2 Transport and Environment TA G: Transport Planning and Policy SIG G1* Governance and Decision-making Processes SIG G2* National and Regional Transport Planning and Policy SIG G3 Urban Transport Planning and Policy SIG G4 Social and Equity Impacts of Transport SIG G5 Transport Security SIG G6 Disaster Resilience in Transport TA H: Transport in Developing and Emerging Countries SIG H3 Infrastructure Operation and Traffic Management SIG H5 Urban Transport / CODATU * New SIG in the process of foundation. We have worked collaboratively with a variety of international organizations, research institutes, academic societies, NPOs, etc. WCTRS TRB Transportation Research Board CODATU EASTS Eastern Asia Society of Transportation Studies CUPUM International Conference on Computers in Urban Planning & Urban Management TRA Transport Research Arena OECD ITF International Transport Forum World Bank Conferences WCTRS organizes the Conference every 3 years as the most important event of the society. The society offers prizes in each conference regularly since This is the largest meeting for transport researchers and professionals. As members of the society, we had approximately 800 participants in Berkeley (2007), 1500 in Lisbon (2010), and 900 in Rio de Janeiro (2013). The Society has a regular and active presence in policy fora and international events providing professional opinions on the importance of transport development. We are consulted about transport development by national & local governments in developing countries. WCTRS runs two international academic journals published by Elsevier; “Transport Policy” and “Case studies on Transport Policy”. Cooperation has been established with 18 major journals to publish WCTR conference papers as special issues. SLoCaT Partnership on Sustainable Low- Carbon Transport 900 to 1500 registered members of researchers and practitioners from about 70 countries as of UNFCCC United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change The young researchers’ initiative “WCTRS-Y” provides Ph.D students’ grants and honoraria for young members in total 13,000 Euro.
