About the journal
Description
Transport Policy is an international journal aimed at bridging the gap between theory and practice in transport. Its subject areas reflect the concerns of policymakers in government, industry, voluntary organisations and the public at large, providing independent, original and rigorous analysis to understand how policy decisions have been taken, monitor their effects, and suggest how they may be improved.
The journal treats the transport sector comprehensively, and in the context of other sectors including energy, housing, industry and planning. All modes are covered: land, sea and air; road and rail; public and private; motorised and non-motorised; passenger and freight. It is recognised that policy concerns in transport have to be very wide, to cover safety, efficiency, economic development, local and global environmental impact, energy, land-use, equity and access for the widest range of travellers with special needs.
Policy topics include expectations of traffic growth and how to cope with it; infrastructure and vehicle design; traffic restraint, calming, management and control; regulation, deregulation and privatisation; economic and commercial pricing policy; and the methodological tools available to predict and assess the effects of alternative policy options.
It is intended to give special priority to understanding the nature and influences affecting policy change, including technical, attitudinal, institutional, structural and political constraints. Detailed local and sectoral case studies will be recorded, with an emphasis on policy and management implications.
New Submission Procedure
We are pleased to announce that a new electronic submission and handling system, EES, has been implemented for Transport Policy. This 'Elsevier Editorial System' (or EES) is a web-based system with full online submission, review and status update capabilities. EES allows you to upload files directly from your computer. This is part of our on-going efforts to improve the efficiency and accuracy of our editorial procedures and the quality and timeliness of the manuscripts published. We strongly encourage all authors to use EES at the following URL when submitting papers to the journal. EES can be accessed at http://ees.elsevier.com/jtrp. (First time users will need to register).

Instructions to Authors
Guide for Authors
Transport Policy is a new international journal aimed at bridging the gap between theory and practice in transport. Its subject areas reflect the concerns of policy makers in government, industry, voluntary organisations and the public at large, providing independent, original and rigorous analysis to understand how policy decisions have been taken, monitor their effects, and suggest how they may be improved.
The journal treats the transport sector comprehensively, and in the context of other sectors including energy, housing, industry and planning. All modes are covered: land, sea and air; road and rail, public and private; motorized and non-motorized; passenger and freight.
SUBMISSIONS
Authors should submit their manuscripts via the online submission page of this journal at http://ees.elsevier.com/jtrp. Authors will be guided stepwise through the creation and uploading of the various files. The system automatically converts source files to a single Adobe Acrobat PDF version of the article, which is used in the peer-review process. Please note that even though manuscript source files are converted to PDF at submission for the review process, these source files are needed for further processing after acceptance. All correspondence, including notification of the editor's decision and requests for revision, takes place by e-mail and via the author's home page. A printed copy of the manuscript is not required at any stage of the process.
Full contact details for the corresponding author (postal, phone, fax and email) are given when submitting a manuscript. Articles must be written in good English.
Articles should be 4000-6000 words long, although articles longer than 6000 words will be accepted on an occasional basis, if the topic demands this length of treatment. Authors are responsible for ensuring that all manuscripts (whether original or revised) are accurately typed before final submission. Manuscripts will be returned to the author with a set of instructions if they are not submitted according to our style.
Contributions are normally received with the understanding that they comprise original, unpublished material and are not being submitted for publication elsewhere. Translated material, which has not been published in English, will also be considered.
All articles are refereed to ensure both accuracy and relevance, and amendments to the script may thus be required before final acceptance. On acceptance contributions are subject to editorial amendment to suit house style, but authors will receive proofs for approval before publication.
SHORTER ITEMS
The Viewpoint section exists for the expression of opinion, and allows authors to submit material which might not be appropriate for full-length articles but which contains ideas worthy of publication (1500-2500 words).
Book reviews are welcomed (800-1200 words).
Conference reports (1000-1500 words).
Notices of forthcoming meetings for listing in the Calendar section are also welcomed. Entries must be received at least four months before publication.
PRESENTATION OF MANUSCRIPTS
Manuscripts must be typed in journal style, double spaced. Number every sheet. Footnotes, abstract and references should be double spaced on one side only. International Standard Size A4 document, with a left-hand margin of 40 mm, should be used.
Arrangement of papers
1 Short title (up to 40 characters including spaces), subtitle (if desired), author's name, affiliations and addresses of co-authors should be clearly indicated.
2 Self-contained abstract of up to 100 words outlining in a single paragraph the aims, scope and conclusions of the paper; acknowledgements (if any); article title, abbreviated appropriately for use as a running headline.
3 Main body of text, suitably divided under headings.
4 References.
5 Appendices.
6 Tables (each on a separate page).
7 Footnotes where necessary (numbered consecutively).
8 Captions to illustrations (on a separate page).
9 Illustrations (each on a separate page containing no text).
The text should be organized under appropriate section headings which, ideally, should not be more than 600 words apart. All headings should be placed on the left-hand side of the text, with a double line space above and below.
Authors are urged to write as concisely as possible, but not at the expense of clarity. Descriptive or explanatory passages, necessary as information but which tend to break up the flow of text, should be put into footnotes or appendices. Where possible, however, footnotes should be avoided.
All measurements should be given in metric (SI) units.
REFERENCES AND FOOTNOTES
For Transport Policy the Harvard system is to be used; author's names (no initials) an dates (and specific pages, only in the case of quotations) are given in the main body of the text,eg (Thomson, 1988, p. 29). References are listed alphabetically at the end of the paper, double spaced, and conform to current journal style:

TABLES
Tables should be numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals and given a suitable caption. Notes and references within tables should be included with the tables, separately from the main text. Notes should be referred to by superscript letters. All table columns should have an explanatory heading. Tables should not repeat data available elsewhere in the article, eg. in an illustration.
ILLUSTRATIONS
All graphs, diagrams and other illustrations should be referred to as Figures, which should be numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals and placed on separate sheets at the end of the manuscript. Their position should be indicated in the text. All illustrations must have captions, which should be typed on a separate sheet.

PROOFS
One set of page proofs in PDF format will be sent by e-mail to the corresponding author (if we do not have an e-mail address then paper proofs will be sent by post). Elsevier now sends PDF proofs which can be annotated; for this you will need to download Adobe Reader version 7 available free from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html. Instructions on how to annotate PDF files will accompany the proofs. The exact system requirements are given at the Adobe site: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/acrrsystemreqs.html#70win. If you do not wish to use the PDF annotations function, you may list the corrections (including replies to the Query Form) and return to Elsevier in an e-mail. Please list your corrections quoting line number. If, for any reason, this is not possible, then mark the corrections and any other comments (including replies to the Query Form) on a printout of your proof and return by fax, or scan the pages and e-mail, or by post.
Please use this proof only for checking the typesetting, editing, completeness and correctness of the text, tables and figures. Significant changes to the article as accepted for publication will only be considered at this stage with permission from the Editor. We will do everything possible to get your article published quickly and accurately. Therefore, it is important to ensure that all of your corrections are sent back to us in one communication: please check carefully before replying, as inclusion of any subsequent corrections cannot be guaranteed. Proofreading is solely your responsibility. Note that Elsevier may proceed with the publication of your article if no response is received.
