The journal generally zeroes in on subjects such as Transport engineering, Operations research, Public transport, Transportation planning and Simulation. Topics in Transport engineering were tackled in line with various other fields like Mathematical model, Human factors and ergonomics and Urban area. In addition to Human factors and ergonomics research, Transportation Planning and Technology aims to explore topics under Injury prevention, Suicide prevention and Occupational safety and health.
Transportation Planning and Technology links adjacent topics like Operations research with Schedule. The main emphasis of the journal is the research on Public transport, emphasizing the topic of Transit (satellite). It connects the study in Simulation with the closely related area of Mathematical optimization.
The published papers generally zeroe in on subjects such as Transport engineering, Operations research, Public transport, Simulation and Traffic flow. In addition to Transport engineering research, the most cited papers aim to explore topics under Regression analysis and Truck. Schedule, Decision support system, Fuzzy logic, Mathematical model and Data envelopment analysis are some topics wherein Operations research research discussed in the published articles has an impact.
Transportation Planning and Technology aims to foster the development of research in Transport engineering, Public transport, Environmental economics, Operations research and Built environment. In particular, the Transport engineering works presented emphasize discussions on Passenger transport. The concepts on Public transport presented in the journal can also apply to other research fields, including General Social Survey and Willingness to pay.
The studies on Environmental economics discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Price elasticity of demand, Road pricing, Process (engineering) and Sensitivity (control systems). Transportation Planning and Technology facilitates discussions on Operations research that incorporate concepts from other fields like Resource based, Level of service, Terminal design and Headway. Built environment research presented in the journal encompasses a variety of subjects, including Kilometer and Socioeconomic status.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Transportation Planning and Technology (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Transportation Planning and Technology (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 2.22% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 27.27% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 4.55% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 6.82% of all publications and 61.36% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2020)For students interested in Engineering and Technology, expanding skills through related online degrees can significantly enhance career prospects. Pursuing a project manager degree is ideal for those looking to lead complex engineering projects and develop key management skills. This degree complements technical expertise with a focus on coordination, budgeting, and team leadership.
Architecture is another closely linked field offering dynamic career options. Many students explore an architecture degree online to combine creativity with technical design skills. Flexible and accessible, these programs allow learners to study foundational principles and advanced concepts remotely.
For those seeking faster completion, exploring online architecture programs designed to be completed in under two years can provide an accelerated pathway to careers in architecture or related design fields without compromising quality.
Similarly, an accelerated online project management degree offers a quick yet comprehensive route into managing engineering projects effectively. This option suits professionals eager to fast-track their qualifications while balancing other commitments.
