Review in the Journal of Transport Geography :
"the proceedings of WCTR 8 should be on your bookshelves. They offer the convenience of a triennial one-stop-shop for contemporary transport research ... This publication was intended to provide, and potently succeeds in furnishing, a unique meeting place for diverse transport professionals ... Excellent papers ... these volumes surely represent a cost-effective investment for every transport researcher."
John Dinwoodie, University of Plymouth, in Journal of Transport Geography, Volume 9, 2001
