The WCTRS is an organisation whose purpose is to provide a forum for the interchange of ideas among transportation researchers, managers, policy makers, and educators from all over the world, from a perspective which is multi-modal, multi-disciplinary, and multi-sectoral. The Society has become a primary forum for such international exchanges in transportation. Its World Conferences are the place where leading transportation professionals from all countries convene to learn from one another.
WCTRS has over 1,500 members from more than 60 countries.
