About the journal
Transportation Science publishes original contributions and surveys on phenomena associated with all modes of transportation, present and prospective, including mainly such aspects as planning, design, economic, operational, and social. Excluded are physical design aspects of such items as vehicles, highway pavements, railroad roadbeds, or other components. Contributions in related areas such as location may be of interest as long as their relevance to transportation is clearly demonstrated (e.g. papers on the location of bus depots, of airline hubs, etc.).
Contributions which advance the analytical, experimental and observational tools for the study of transportation problems are also welcome, as are critical review articles dealing with the status and direction of the above subjects. Of particular interest is scientific work on transportation processes which contribute to the understanding of the characteristics and behavior of transportation systems, and studies on Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS).
A "Technical Notes" section contains brief articles on all of the topics mentioned above. Commentary appears in "Letter to the Editor" section. Book reviews within the scope of the Journal are also published.
All papers, notes, and letters submitted for publication are refereed and accepted solely on the basis of quality and importance. Decisions regarding the publication of the paper are based on the value of the contribution to the field of transportation science. Criteria such as relationship with the existing literature, length and style are taken into account.

Editorial Policy
Transportation Science publishes original contributions and surveys on phenomena associated with all modes of transportation, present and prospective, including mainly such aspects as planning, design, economic, operational, and social. Excluded are physical design aspects of such items as vehicles, highway pavements, railroads, roadbeds, or other components. Contributions in related areas such as location may be of interest as long as their relevance to demonstration is clearly demonstrated (e.g., papers on the location of bus depots, or airline hubs, etc...). Studies that advance the analytical, experimental, and obersvational tools for the study of transportation problems are also welcome, as are critical review articles dealing with the status and direction of the above subjects. Of particular interest is scientific work on transportation processes that contribute to the understanding of the characteristics and behavior of transportatiosystems. Book reviews within the scope of the journal are also published.
All papers submitted for publication are refereed and accepted solely on the basis of quality and importance. The contribution of each paper should be clearly stated in the introduction. Decisions regarding the publication of the paper are based on the value of the contribution to the field of transportation science. Criteria such as relationship with existing literature, length, and style are taken into account. A clear indication on the suitability of a manuscript is usually provided after the first round of refereeing. As a rule, manuscripts can undergo only one major revision.
Instructions to Authors
Manuscripts for publication should be submitted to the Editor in five copies. Submission of a manuscript is a representation that the paper has been neither published nor submitted for publication elsewhere, and that, if the work is officially sponsored, it has been released for open publication.
Manuscripts must be double-spaced throughout with the original in typewritten or equally legible form. They should contain no footnotes. Figures are required in a form suitable for photographic reproduction. Any one of a number of forms will be acceptable, e.g., laser printer drawing, original black ink drawings, or high- quality glossy prints. Lettering should be uniform in size and style and sufficiently large to be legible after reduction. Figures should be designated by arabic numbers and referred to in the text by number. Figure legends should be collectively provided on a separate sheet rather than placed on the figures themselves. Tables may be typed on sheets separated from the text. Each table should have a caption that makes the table entries clearly independent of the text; complicated column headings should be avoided. All tables should be numbered and referred to in the text by number.
In mathematical expressions, authors are requested in general to minimize unusual or expensive typographical requirements; for example: authors are requested to use the solidus wherever possible in preference to built-up fractions, to write complicated exponentials in the form exp() and to avoid subscripts and superscripts on subscripts or superscripts. Subscripts and superscripts should be shown large and clear, Greek letters and unusual symbols should be labeled on first occurrence, as should subscript "zero", to distinguish it from the letter "oh". Whether each letter is capital or lower case should be unambiguous. Equation numbers must be at the right.
Each paper must be accompanied by an abstract of about 100 to 200 words. The abstract should be adequate as an index and should summarize the principal results and conclusions. The first section of the article should not be numbered. References to related previous work should be reasonably complete, and grouped at the end of the paper. References in the text should be cited by the author's surname and the year of publication, e.g.: (Jansson, 1980),(Marguier and Ceder, 1984).The following format should be used for references:
