Transport Research Arena
Athens, Greece, April 23-26 2012
TRA is not just a conference but an arena which aims at bringing together European stakeholders from all areas of transport and transport-related activities. It is with a great satisfaction that we welcome the initiative taken on the occasion of TRA 2012 to extend the scope of the conference to all modes of surface transport: road, rail and waterborne. A renewed TRA, covering all transport modes but also urban transport planning and mobility as well as co-modality, is precisely what the European Commission was calling for. This will happen in Athens in 2012.

WCRR 2011
9th World Congress on Railway Research
Lille, 22-26 May 2011
The WCRR 2011 is an outstanding international meeting whose target is to promote exchange between researchers, manufacturers and operators as well as to share their experience.
It’s the best opportunity for promoting and fostering research’s added value for the transport world as a whole and more particularly for its clients, freight and passengers through the stakes of future mobility.
For the WCRR 2011 edition, the international community of railway research made its contribution through eight federating and innovating challenges that are definitively client oriented.

19th International Railway Safety Conference 2009
Båstad, Sweden, 28 September – 02 October 2009
IRSC is an event that is organised by the sector, for the sector and is not for profit. It is a forum that brings together rail safety professionals from around the globe in order to exchange information and provide experiences and lessons learned in rail safety. As running a rail network safely involves most if not all the sub-systems of the rail architecture, IRSC extends to a wide range of subject areas.
The 5 core themes of IRSC 2009 were:
1. Safety management in a changing world 2. Human behaviour in a complex system 3. How safe is safe enough? 4. Safety and security – harmonised or conflicting goals 5. Safety standards – harmonisation or uniformity
Around 140 participants from 22 countries with representation from all 5 continents were in BÃ¥stad.
