Elsevier, the Advisory Editor and the editorial board will evaluate all proposals on the bases of key information related to the conference provided by the organizers, including, but not limited to, the conference website, programme, supporting organization and contact details of the committee and keynote speakers. Elsevier may make contact with members of the committee and keynote speakers to obtain further information about the conference during the evaluation process.

What does the Transportation Research Procedia offer authors and conference organizers?
The Transportation Research Procedia offers a high quality, well respected, global platform for conference papers to be hosted and accessed by an audience of millions of researchers. All proceedings appear online, on ScienceDirect, within 8 weeks of submission to the Publisher of the final manuscripts from the conference organizer and are integrated into the regular search functions of ScienceDirect and are freely available to all readers. The Transportation Research Procedia offers authors and conference organizers a fast and cost effective way to provide maximum exposure for their proceedings papers.

Templates (both LateX and Word) are provided to assist in the publication and the final online papers contain linked references, XML versions and DOI numbers.The Transportation Research Procedia does not have, and is not eligible for, an Impact Factor as it does not publish primary research, full length, peer reviewed articles.

There is no limit to the amount of papers a Transportation Research Procedia issue can contain and pricing is affordable, clear and transparent. Transportation Research Procedia offers immediate access for all, with papers online within 8 weeks of submission to the Publisher, and open access for end users providing maximum exposure for individual papers and the related conference. Organizers are credited on the actual issue and are fully responsible for quality control and the review process.

What are the costs associated with the Transportation Research Procedia?
There is an agreed fee, payable by the conference organizer, based on the number of papers included in the proceedings. This fee is kept to a minimum and is charged to cover the costs of preparing and publishing the volume, hosting it online, ensuring future accessibility on ScienceDirect and providing free access to all readers. A quote for costs will be provided upon receipt of a completed proposal form and based on the information provided - see below.

In addition to the online version there is the possibility, for an additional fee, to request paper copies, CD-ROMs and USB sticks. Moreover, interactive media possibilities such as webcasts and web seminars can be acquired for extra exposure both before and after the conference.

Can Transportation Research Procedia be sponsored?
We are open to discussing sponsoring possibilities at all times. Sponsors can include funding bodies, government agencies and/or industry. Benefits to sponsors include visibility amongst a scientific audience and the opportunity to communicate messages via a peer-reviewed platform. Benefits to authors and conference organizers are extra exposure of the conference and reduced costs to the overall conference budget.
