Subject: Call for Papers - WTPP: A Future Beyond the Car?

Apologies for cross-postings.  This special edition of World Transport Policy & 
Practice is planned to be published early in 2012.  The deadline for submission 
of articles is July 31st.  A broad introduction by Guest Editor Steve Melia will 
set the scene for up to half a dozen articles of 2,000 to 5,000 words around the 
following indicative themes:

·         Good practice in removal of cars/traffic from urban areas
·         Experience of new practices or technologies which offer the potential 
to replace private motor traffic in the longer-term
·         Alternatives to increasing motorisation in developing or 
newly-industrialised countries
·         Research into carfree lifestyles in developed countries
·         The challenges and limitations of ‘solving the problem’ through 
alternative fuels and new car technology

In line with the overall aims of the journal, we are looking for evidence-based 
articles which will be of use to policymakers, campaigners and/or transport 
professionals.  The articles should be about a specific aspect of ‘the big 
picture’, so for example, an article about experience of freight delivery in 
carfree or pedestrian areas would be appropriate, whereas a study of a specific 
change designed to increase efficiency of deliveries in a pedestrian area, would 
not.
