Subject: TRB Committee ABJ30 - annual paper review survey and update
Dear TRB ABJ30 committee members and friends - hope this finds your summer
both relaxing and productive!
The TRB paper submission/review cycle will begin on August 1, which is the
deadline for paper submission. From there, papers will be assigned to
committees and then the committees will assign the papers to the reviewers.
The paper review period is August 15 - September 10. The entire process
will be completed by mid-September, with review results and final session
details input into the TRB system before October 1.
As with prior years, members should expect to receive 4-5 papers to review
from this committee. Friends are asked to review 1-2 papers for ABJ30 (if
you'd like to review more, we're happy to assign more to you!). You may
receive additional reviews from different committees - we don't have a way
of coordinating assignments across committees.
As a "high volume" committee (i.e., we receive more than 100 papers to
review each year), your assistance in reviewing papers is a critical element
as each paper needs multiple reviewers with a diversity of experience to
ensure well-rounded reviews. To help us connect reviewers with papers,
please complete this very short survey by *Wednesday July 24*:
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ABJ30_paperreviews
Three important reminders:
1. In order to receive a paper review assignment from ABJ30, you *must*
have a MyTRB profile (www.mytrb.org <http://www.mytrb.org> ) and have
selected the following "classifications" [as relevant for your areas of
expertise] in the "Areas of Interest or Expertise" section of your profile:
* Urban Transp Data and Info Systems ABJ30
* Travel Time, Speed and Reliability ABJ30SB
* Urban Transportation Big Data ABJ30SC
2. Paper review assignments take place within the MyTRB system. Please
login to check the email you have listed in your MyTRB profile and enter
that same email here in the survey so we can find you in the system. This
is a great time to recheck your affiliation and contact information as well.
3. As you receive email notifications of paper assignments, please
login to MyTRB and accept/decline each paper assigned as quickly as
possible. This helps us manage the review process more efficiently.
Thanks in advance for your help -

11th annual Transportation and Communities Summit 2019
Sept 19 - 20, 2019 (Portland, OR)
Connecting national, mobility-focused research to practice and policy
The <http://transportation.acemlna.com/lt.php?s=70a13a8aba69c7e18880076ba888b762…> 11th annual Transportation and Communities Summit 2019 at Portland State University connects national, mobility-focused research to equitable practice and policy through breakout panels, Lightning Talks, student posters, deep-dive workshops, and networking. This year we’ll explore:
* The intersection between transportation, housing and land use with a focus on mitigating displacement, understanding transportation's impacts on the housing economy, and reforming policy in response to social justice.
* Where is mobility in active transportation taking us? We'll touch on safety design guidance at the intersection, the electrification of travel options like e-scooters and electric buses, and policies to support active mobility for all ages and abilities.
* Tackling multimodal data: collecting, processing, analyzing, and using it to create equitable transportation solutions.
We’re excited to welcome our <http://transportation.acemlna.com/lt.php?s=70a13a8aba69c7e18880076ba888b762…> keynote Ben Wellington—a data scientist and policy analyst from New York City whose work has influenced local government policy, street infrastructure, and the design of NYC subway vending machines.
