From the 21st to the 23rd of June, Crete (Greece) will hold the 22nd International Conference on Urban Transport and the Environment.
*The conference attracts delegates from all over the world and is well-established as the premier event of its type. Transportation in urban areas, with its related environmental and social impacts, is a topic of significant concern for policymakers in both municipal and central government and for the urban citizens who need effective and efficient transport systems. Urban transport systems require considerable studies to devise and then safeguard their operational use, maintenance and safety. Transportation systems produce significant environmental impacts and can enhance or degrade the quality of life in urban centres.
*The research goal to which the conference contributes is to devise and implement transportation systems that contribute to a sustainable urban environment through minimising the negative environmental impacts whilst improving the socioeconomic and cultural development of the urban environment. The depth and breadth of topics covered by this conference allows for robust analysis of the complex interactions of urban transport and the environment and provides opportunities for establishing practical action strategies for resolving urban transportation problems.
*Papers presented at Urban Transport 2016 will be published by WIT Press in Volume 164 of WIT Transactions on the Built Environment (ISSN: 1746-4498 Digital ISSN: 1743-3509). WIT Press ensures maximum worldwide dissemination of your research through its own offices in Europe, the USA and via its extensive international distribution network.
