Mission

Transportation systems in China have been drastically developed over the past three decades. The vast country is now cross-linked effectively through various modes of transportation with modern infrastructure, including high-speed rail, airports, highways, and waterways. The science and technology in transportation have also been significantly advanced with mega-sized institutions and industries. To promote the exchange of newest research findings and practical experiences in transportation, the Transportation Research Congress (TRC) is intended to serve as a global platform for researchers, educators, practicing engineers, investors, entrepreneurs, and governmental officials from all over the world. At TRC, these experts will be able to gather together in China to present the latest research findings, exchange research ideas, share experiences and lessons learned, showcase successful innovations and practices, identify research and educational needs, and provide consultations to the transportation community on a regular basis. Following the examples of the Transportation Research Board (TRB) Meeting and the Transportation Research Arena (TRA), TRC2021 is envisioned to have similar missions and goals, covering major modes of transportation. TRC2021 aims to continue the success of previous TRC Meetings with a global platform based in China.
