The UTSG Electronic Mailing List
An Email based mailing list has been established by the Universities Transport Study Group (UTSG). The list provides an electronic discussion forum and information resource for researchers in the field of transport primarily, but not exclusively, in the academic community.
The list was established in October 1993, and has a steadily growing membership, including researchers in all continents of the World.
The aim of the list is to facilitate information sharing, (e.g. news of new research, conferences, seminars and workshops) and to promote links, collaborative working, joint problem-solving and mutual support. Depending on the level of usage of the list and on demand, sub-lists may be set up in the future for special interests or particular types of information.
The list is administered by the Institute for Transport Studies, University of Leeds. It is one of several hundred lists managed by the JISCmail facility funded by the Higher and Further Education Councils of the UK.

I am inviting outstanding early-career researchers to apply for an Azrieli International Postdoctoral Fellowship<https://azrielifoundation.org/fellows/internationalpostdoctoral/> and join my Fair Transport Lab<https://fairtransport.technion.ac.il/> at the Technion.
The fellowship offers an opportunity to develop pioneering research at the intersection of transport and justice.
š” I am particularly interested in candidates who want to explore:
ā¢ How concepts such as sufficiency, dignity and relational equality can reshape transport planning and evaluation
ā¢ How new methods ā from surveys to big data ā can identify mobility problems and transport disadvantage that conventional measurement methods overlook
ā¢ How the benefits of public transport services in [...]
I am currently seeking prospective PhD students interested in pursuing doctoral studies in public transport planning and operations and land use and transport planning, beginning in Fall 2027.
I am specifically interested in hearing from candidates who would like to conduct research in one of the following areas:
1. Public Transport Planning and Operations: Public transport performance metrics (e.g., running time, on-time performance, schedule deviation, and headway deviation), as well as public transport satisfaction and travel experience.
2. Land Use and Transport Planning: The interaction between land use and transport, including (perceived) accessibility measures and their implementation in [...]
