TRA 2024

The 2024 edition was held in Dublin, from April 15 to 18, 2024. The conference welcomed over 4000 delegates under the theme “Transport Transitions: Advancing Sustainable and Inclusive Mobility”.

One week after a very dense and fruitful TRA2024 that attracted the highest number of delegates and countries ever, we would like to extend our deepest thank and appreciation to the Irish Organisers e.g. Transport Infrastructure Ireland, University College Dublin, Enterprise Ireland, IDA Ireland, and Conference Partners International, and in particular to Minister for Transport Eamon Ryan and Minister of State Jack Chambers, for making TRA 2024 such a memorable and successful event. 

Thanks as well to all stakeholders engaged in the TRA Committees for contributing to draw such a rich and diverse programme, and for the great collaboration. ECTRI was glad to be part of that journey.

🟢 The organisation of TRA VISIONS young and senior competitions for the cross modal pillar recognizing the brightest transport innovators

🟢 A vibrant ‘Research Village Associations’ stand together with FEHRL & EURNEX visited by hundreds of delegates for sharing ideas and fostering connections with the European transport research Community

🟢 The organisation of our Spring General Assembly, and of the Mid-Year Meeting of Transportation Research Board International Coordinating Council
