TRA 2026 has opened its call for abstracts to celebrate researchers by recognizing their innovative contributions to transportation research.
The first round will accept abstracts of maximum 200 words until 15th June 2025 through the online submission system accessible via the conference website. The submissions will be reviewed by members of the local program committee.
In the second round, conference papers of maximum 4000 words are invited to be submitted by 15th September 2025 through the online submission system. The papers will be reviewed by independent experts and by members of the local program committee.
Paper structure
The conference papers should describe the research goals, the previous literature, the elaborated methods, the achieved results, and a proper discussion of the outcomes in order to allow the scientific committee to assess the quality of the submissions. Only original contributions are considered for presentation at the conference.
Presentation
Accepted papers will be presented either in a technical (oral) session or as a poster with a brief oral presentation. Maximum one presentation is allowed per person attending the conference. This means that an author can be a co-author of multiple papers but is not allowed to present more than one paper.
