African Transport Studies

• ISSN: 2950-1962

African Transport Studies (AFTRAN) is a refereed international journal. It is the official journal of the Society for African Transport Research. AFTRAN aims at providing useful insights into solving Africa-specific transport-related issues from both theoretical and practical perspectives. It covers all transport modes and all issues in the transport sector.The journal favours papers that report on empirical research findings or engage in critical reflection on transport policies and practices in Africa. Purely literature review papers will only be considered with prior approval of the Editor-in-Chief, and will normally be invited by the AFTRAN editorship.Types of papers:Research papers:Papers reporting original research are the lifeblood of the journal. They should engage with, and build, the prevailing body of literature, and should report research aims, methods, results, and discussion. Research papers should normally be no longer that 8 000 words.Reponses and rejoinders:Discussion on published research papers, and subsequent rejoinders from the authors, are welcome. Responses and rejoinders should normally be no longer than 1 500 words.Case study papers:Case study papers are research papers that focus on a particular geographical context, often profiling the transport system of an African city or country. Case study papers should normally be no longer that 8 000 words.Editorials:Special issue collections of papers should be preceded by editorials, which signal the importance of the special issue theme and how it advances current debates in the field. Editorials should normally be no longer than 2 000 words.Technical notes:Technical notes will often discuss a single methodological issue of particular importance to the African context. The method described may either be novel, or may offer an improvement on an existing method. Technical notes should normally be no longer that 2 000 words.The Society for African Transport Research is an international cooperative society of researchers and practitioners who are either based in Africa or focus their research there. Its primary objectives are to foster and support excellence in transportation research and practice and to stimulate professional interchanges in all aspects and modes of transportation. It organizes an international conference on transportation research every two years.

Case Studies on Transport Policy

• ISSN: 2213-624X
• 5 Year impact factor: 2.5
• Impact factor: 2.4

A Journal of the World Conference on Transport Research SocietyTransport policy is a multidisciplinary field where engineering, economics, sociology and law must come together in well-articulated and effective solutions. Despite being a field of effective intervention, most scientific publications address transport policy with a theoretical and often abstract approach, making its understanding difficult for non-senior academics and even more opaque for practitioners. While the merits of case study methods both for undergraduate and graduate teaching are recognised, academics struggle to find empirical material that provides objective and operational illustration of the theories and approaches lectured. This is a major barrier not only in the teaching context but also for practitioners.Case Studies on Transport Policy covers this gap by providing a repository of relevant material to support teaching and transferability of experiences. Observation of field experience highlighting the details and drawbacks of implementation is invaluable to show how Transport Policy can be applied in the operational field, maintaining consistency with strategic options. Teaching with case studies introduces students to challenges they may face in the real world, and provides a very rich learning method for executive training at every institutional level. For practitioners, and specially governments, case studies are a powerful tool to show the potential benefits from policy measures and packages.Case Studies on Transport Policy and its sister journal Transport Policy provide a valuable reference for the specialised study of transport policy offering in-depth theoretical analysis and detailed case study description and analysis, and in this way providing very complete material for decision makers planners and practitioners to undertake transferability of experiences.
