TIS Roma 2024: AIIT 4th International Conference "Greening the way forward: sustainable transport infrastructure and systems" ACI - Automobile Club d'Italia Building Via Marsala, 8 Rome, Italy, September 19-20, 2024

The objective of the AIIT International Conference TIS Rome 2024 is to promote the knowledge of the new trends of development of mobility systems and transport infrastructures. The Conference aims at providing a forum for discussion, interactions and exchange among researchers, scientists and engineers whose fields of interest concern transport and infrastructure engineering. The conference is organized by the Italian Association for Traffic and Transport Engineering AIIT founded in 1957.

Papers presenting contemporary research about different transportation modes are welcome, including air, road, railway, maritime and inland waterways, logistics. The program will cover the following topics, but will not be limited to:
