The Transport Research Arena (TRA) is the foremost European transport event that covers all transport modes and all aspects of mobility. Occurring biennially, it attracts 3,000 attendees from all over Europe and beyond. TRA2020 was planned to take place in Helsinki on 27–30 April on the theme “Rethinking transport – towards clean and inclusive mobility”. For the first time a Journal review track was organised, and the best research papers published in a special issue in ETRR. Despite the Conference being cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are pleased to announce that the valuable scientific work from the Conference is still available in this special issue.
The challenges faced by the freight transport sector—in the current context of climate change, pollution and congestion—are enormous. Demand is increasing dramatically and issues caused by e-commerce and city distribution will have to be tackled. On the other hand, new technologies can bring disruptive business models and cause different social impacts. A special issue edited by Cathy Macharis and Silvio Nocera brings together six studies that discuss the future of freight transport from different perspectives. Read the editorial here.
We are now accepting submissions to a new article collection dedicated to the development of mobility as a service.
This collection is guest-edited by Heikki Liimatainen and Milos Mladenovic. Read more about the topics of interest and further details here.
The deadline for submissions is June 30th, 2020.
In light of the International Women in Engineering Day (June 23), ETRR Board Member and Author Elisabete Arsenio tells us more about herself, shares why she chose her career path and offers some advice for young women interested in transportation engineering.

European Transport Research Review (ETRR) is a peer-reviewed open access journal publishing original high-quality scholarly research and developments in areas related to transportation science, technologies, policy and practice. Established in 2008 by the European Conference of Transport Research Institutes (ECTRI), the Journal provides researchers and practitioners around the world with an authoritative forum for the dissemination and critical discussion of new ideas and methodologies that originate in, or are of special interest to, the European transport research community. The journal is unique in its field, as it covers all modes of transport and addresses both the engineering and the social science perspective, offering a truly multidisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners, engineers and policymakers. ETRR is aimed at a readership including researchers, practitioners in the design and operation of transportation systems, and policymakers at the international, national, regional and local levels.
ETRR covers the following main areas of interest:
Examples of particular topics of interest are: urban logistics, intermodal transport systems, transitions towards sustainable transport, accessibility and equity analysis, technologies for improving network and vehicle efficiency, advances in integrated transport systems and intermodal transportation, traffic safety analysis, traffic flow theory and modeling, IT technologies for transport data collection and analysis, strategies for vehicle-to-vehicle communications and the transport impacts and indirect impacts of autonomous vehicles. The Journal encourages thematic collections of related articles from major European transport research projects, major conferences such as the TRA, ETC and WCTR, and international networks such as NECTAR.
ETRR aims to disseminate and discuss new ideas and methodologies that originate in, or are of special interest to, the European transport research community. While its focus is on Europe, it will be of interest to anyone wishing to learn from European experience or to develop new applications for European practice. We consider papers on non-European case studies if the relevance for the European transportation research field is sufficiently made clear.
