About the journal

Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment publishes original research on the environmental impacts of transportation, policy responses to those impacts, and their implications for the design, planning, and management of transportation systems. It covers all aspects of the interaction between transportation and the environment. For example, it includes papers ranging in their coverage from the local and immediate effects of transportation networks on the environments of specific geographical areas, to the widest global implications of natural resource depletion and atmospheric pollution.
The journal invites submissions of research papers on all modes of transportation, including maritime and air transportation as well as land transportation, and considers their impacts on the environment in the broad sense. Papers dealing with both mobile aspects and transportation infrastructure are considered. The emphasis of the journal is on empirical findings and policy responses of a regulatory, planning, technical or fiscal nature. Articles are primarily policy-driven and should be relevant and applied as well as being accessible to readers from a wide range of disciplines. There are no disciplinary boundaries to work considered and submissions of an interdisciplinary nature are welcomed. Equally, the journal is fully international in its orientation and invites contributions from economically developing, as well as more economically advanced, countries.
Part D's aims and scope are complementary to Transportation Research Part A: Policy and Practice, Part B: Methodological andPart C: Emerging Technologies. The complete set forms the most cohesive and comprehensive reference of current research in transportation science.
Instructions to Authors
Submission of Manuscripts
As of 01 February 2004, all new manuscripts must be submitted through the Transportation Research Part D online submission and review Web site (http://ees.elsevier.com/trd/). Authors are requested to submit the text, tables, and artwork in electronic form to this address. In an accompanying letter, authors should state that the manuscript, or parts of it, have not been and will not be submitted elsewhere for publication. Authors are highly encouraged to include a list of three or more potential reviewers for their manuscript, with complete contact information. Submission items include a cover letter, suggested reviewers, the manuscript (including title page, abstract, manuscript text, references, and table/figure legends), tables, and figures. Revised manuscripts should also be accompanied by a unique file (separate from the covering letter) with responses to reviewers' comments. The preferred order of files is as follows: cover letter, suggested reviewers, response to reviews (revised manuscripts only), manuscript file(s), table(s), figure(s). Files should be labeled with appropriate and descriptive file names (e.g., SmithText.doc, Fig1.eps, Table3.doc). Upload text, tables and graphics as separate files. Do not import figures or tables into the text document. Complete instructions for electronic artwork submission can be found on the Author Gateway, accessible through the journal home page. Authors who are unable to provide an electronic version or have other circumstances that prevent online submission must contact the Editorial Office prior to submission to discuss alternate options. The Publisher and Editors regret that they are not able to consider submissions that do not follow these procedures.
Style of Manuscript
All sections of the manuscript (abstract, text, preferences) should be double-spaced, using a single typeface and style. Use underlining only for definitions and subsections; do not underline for emphasis. Footnotes should be limited in number and size, and should not contain mathematical expressions.
The abstract should describe in straightforward language the contents of the paper, but not its motivation. It should explain briefly, the procedures and the results, and must not contain abbreviations and acronyms.
Figures are photo-reproduced and authors will be required to furnish camera-ready artwork or glossy prints. Each figure should be placed on a separate sheet of paper, and should be of good quality. Lettering which appears on the figure should be of sufficient size to allow for considerable reduction. On the back write the figure number and something to identify the manuscript (its number or author(s) last names). The figure captions should be typed on a separate page at the end of the manuscript.
Tables and their captions should be typed on separate sheets, numbered consecutively and indicated in the text at their approximate position.
Equations should be clearly displayed, with any unusual symbols (including Greek letters) identified in the margin.
Equation numbers should be placed in the right margin and numbered continuously, not by section.
The Harvard system of references is used: in the body of the text paper is referred to by the author's surname with the year of publication in parentheses and at the end of the paper complete references are given alphabetically by author's surnames, journal titles should not be abbreviated, e.g.
Kanafani, A. And Abbas, M. S. (1987) Local air service and economic impact of small airports. Journal of Transportation Engineering 113, 42-55.

Proofs
Before publication an authors' proof will be sent to the corresponding author at the address shown on the Editor-in-Chief's covering letter. It is important that authors read the proof very carefully and answer all queries on the page proofs and return the proof to the publisher within a short time (usually 48 hours). Except for typographical errors, changes should be kept to a minimum and rewriting the text is not permitted. Authors may be charged for changes other than the correction of typographical errors. Authors are urged to check their proof carefully, since late corrections cannot be accepted.
Reprints
Along with page proofs, the corresponding author will receive a form for ordering reprints and full copies of the issue in which the paper appears. Twenty-five free reprints are provided; orders for additional reprints must be received before printing in order to qualify for lower prepublication rates. All co-author reprint requirements should be included on the reprint order form.
Copyright All authors must sign the 'Transfer of Copyright' agreement before the article can be published. This transfer agreement enables Elsevier Ltd to protect the copyright material for the authors, but does not relinquish the author's proprietary rights. The copyright transfer covers the exclusive rights to reproduce and distribute the article, including reprints, photographic reproduction, microform or any other reproductions of similar nature and translation, and includes the right to adapt the article for use in conjunction with computer systems and programs, including reproduction or publication in machine-readable form and incorporation in retrieval systems. Authors are responsible for obtaining from the copyright holder permission to reproduce any figures for which copyright exists.
Authors can also keep a track on the progress of their accepted article, and set up e-mail alerts informing them of changes to their manuscript's status, by using the "Track a Paper" feature of Elsevier's Author Gateway.
