INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON

Recent Issues and Solution Methodologies in Transportation Engineering and

Planning: Sustainable Transport (RISTEP 2010)

June 15-18, 2010

The world is confronted with various transportation issues that are quite complex, having social economic and cultural dimensions. The increasing traffic volume has brought about traffic congestion resulting in longer travel times on roads. This results in colossal economic loss and environmental pollution which ultimately degrades the overall quality of life of the people. The situation is worsened by non-existent or inadequate infrastructure for non-motorized-modes (walk and bike), inadequate public transportation system, inefficient freight transportation system, non availability of sufficient parking facilities, less infrastructure capacity and poor quality of existing roads. It is anticipated that the motorization will, for many years, continue to increase and hence the associated impacts. The issues of air traffic congestion and resulting impacts have also taken alarming proportions. Inland water-transport-promotion is being toyed with for long. There also exist issues that are specific to cold and hilly regions and need immediate attention.

National Institute of Technology (NIT), Srinagar, is completing 50 years of its exciting existence and service in 2010. This momentous occasion is being marked by organizing the International Conference on ‘Recent Issues and Solution Methodologies in Transportation Engineering and Planning (RISTEP)’ that lays special emphasis on Sustainable Transport during June 15-18, 2010. The conference theme covers both scientific and operational aspects of transportation and traffic engineering (spanning all modes) and provides a platform for researchers, academicians, policy makers and other stake holders from all around the world to discuss the current chronic transportation problems, provide a deeper understanding of the issues involved and come out with effective and innovative solution techniques. The conference is being lent active support both by government and industry and is expected to involve vibrant participation of transportation professionals from around the globe.

 

To enable the governmental and industrial agencies to actively participate in the event and to organize the event in the most befitting manner, the organizing committee has proposed the following sponsorship scheme:
