This volume investigates the multifaceted challenges and advancements in transport infrastructure and systems, addressing critical issues from asset management and financial viability to sustainability and the integration of intelligent mobility solutions. It compiles research presented at the AIIT International Congress on Transport Infrastructure and Systems (TIS 2017), bringing together experts to discuss the planning, design, maintenance, and operation of modern transport networks. The proceedings explore innovative materials, environmentally sustainable technologies, and policy frameworks essential for developing resilient and efficient transportation systems for the future.
This collection of papers from the TIS 2017 congress offers a comprehensive overview of current research and practice in transport infrastructure and systems. The breadth of topics covered, from engineering and finance to sustainability and safety, indicates a valuable resource for academics, engineers, and policymakers in the field. The inclusion of diverse sub-topics such as ancient roads alongside intelligent mobility suggests a holistic approach to understanding the evolution and future of transportation.
