ECTRI considers the dissemination of scientific knowledge and research results essential. To support such dissemination, ECTRI created the European Transport Research Review (ETRR), an Open Access journal published by Springer.
The European Transport Research Review (ETRR) is an online scientific platform aiming at disseminating research results in the field of transport. The main scope and mission of the Journal is to provide a forum for the publication of high quality scientific papers in the field of transport in general, and a dissemination medium for new ideas and developments that originate in, or are of interest to the European transport research community.
There are three aspects of the Journal’s concept that mark a distinct difference to the other journals in the field of transport; first, it is the open access configuration that makes it easily and widely available through the internet with a minimum of constraints and costs; second, it provides focus on issues of special interest to European transport research, its funding bodies and supervising organisations; third, it is clearly oriented towards researchers and practitioners alike.
The papers are published free of charge for authors and readers.
The Journal primarily considers research papers in English, on both theorical as well as applied research, whose excellence and content represent an important contribution to transport research in Europe.
