Designing, testing and implementation of effective interventions (managerial or technical), and appropriate policy measures need multi-disciplinary, multi-country research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Centre for Sustainable Road Freight would like to invite academics and practitioners from all related fields to take part in a debate of these issues \u2013 to shape the research agenda and to network with key research groups from around the world. Our ambition is to create an international network of practitioners and researchers working on all aspects of sustainable road freight transport, and to facilitate collaborative research amongst the specialists in the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Due to current circumstances the conference will be web-based, presented over a period of three days from 08:00 to 13:00 each day GMT (That will be 10:00 to 15:00 in South Africa, 13:30 to 18:30 in India and 16:00 to 21:00 in China).&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a
