The European Transport Conference (ETC) is the annual conference of the Association for European Transport.

Each year the conference presents the opportunity to interact with a range of speakers across the Transport Industry. The range of topics, the multi-seminar approach and the networking environment makes ETC unique among transport conferences, making it the established premier event of its type.

The conference attracts transport practitioners and researchers from all over Europe where they can find in-depth presentations on policy issues, best practice and research findings across the broad spectrum of transport. The conference programme covers supranational issues, national and local policy and the implementation of projects at a local level.

As transport practitioners and researchers throughout Europe respond to the challenges of economic growth, social change, demographics and the need to become more sustainable, the European Transport Conference provides a forum for the presentation of, and discussion on, robust and affordable responses.

It is truly a conference for all ages and levels of experience, making it an excellent opportunity for networking and forging excellent professional relationships. The conference takes an open, participative approach to its programme. Members who join the programme committees can vote to shape the contents of the conference itself, allowing it to adapt to the needs of the attendees.

Each year the conference looks to recruit a more diverse, inclusive and representative Europe-wide membership, to ensure it remains relevant to the important transport issues of the day and reflects the needs of the current members.

Call for papers are announced in December each year. The Call for Papers for ETC 2018 is now closed.  Please refer to this site for the published programme and contact the organisers if you need further information.

Registration will open in the 2018 Spring.
