Hi all,
Hope you are doing well. I'm a PhD Candidate in Environmental Health at
Boston University and looking for some insight on which Transportation
Research journal (parts A-D) is most interested in transport and health
research as I don't see health in any of their descriptions. Separately, I
do find it interesting that health is missing. I'm preparing one of my
dissertation aims for publication and it is focused on the health benefits
of increasing walking and cycling activity in the Greater Boston area using
a k-means clustering approach on top of travel survey data and health
impact assessment.
Thanks for your thoughts! Alternatively the Journal of Transport & Health
seems quite appropriate for this research, but I thought I'd inquire about
TRB publications here as well.
Best,
Matt
