• Economy and transportation planning
• Transportation and private concession financing
• Transportation infrastructure

• Sustainable transportation policies
• Transportation safety
• Intelligent Transportation Systems
• Road pricing
• Public transportation

With all this subjects and with the idea of exchanging ideas and reducing the gap between the practice and research, we are glad to invite academics, investigators, professionals, students, businessmen and public functionaries to present:
