《公共交通雜志》是由南佛羅里達大學城市交通研究中心（CUTR）通過國家交通研究中心出版的一本國際同行評審的開放訪問期刊。該雜志包含了與各種形式的公共交通以及相關交通和政策問題相關的原始研究和案例研究。課程涉及各種學科，包括工程學、規(guī)劃學、經(jīng)濟學、地理學、公共政策學、政治學和其他學科，包括政策、方法學、技術和金融學。重點是找出解決公共交通問題的創(chuàng)新方案。CUTR及其國家公交研究中心致力于改善公共交通和其他形式的主動交通的性能和相關性。Cutr的大部分研究都是應用于實踐研究，以支持創(chuàng)新解決方案的實施，旨在幫助規(guī)劃、設計、運營和維護公交和輔助交通系統(tǒng)、通勤援助計劃以及支持公共交通的第一英里/最后一英里組成部分的人。論文內(nèi)容每年有多達40篇論文發(fā)表在《公共交通雜志》上，該雜志的預算有限，這是一個財政限制，要求我們在將要發(fā)表的論文類型中確定優(yōu)先次序。因此，雜志中的文章應便于過境人員或相關服務人員閱讀和理解，以便將調(diào)查結果用于乘客、機構和社區(qū)的利益。以案例研究為特色的論文應該比使用已經(jīng)被接受的方法做的更多，并且分享研究結果；研究應該促進知識的狀態(tài)，并且應該突出經(jīng)驗教訓和可以推廣的技術，以便信息在其他可能有類似挑戰(zhàn)的地方有用。不鼓勵高技術/數(shù)學和/或非常學術的論文，這些論文可能超出大多數(shù)過境人員或相關機構人員的理解。作者應考慮將這些論文提交給更多的技術期刊，如：運籌學年鑒計算機與工業(yè)工程歐洲運籌學雜志歐洲科學研究雜志國際應用管理與技術雜志國際項目管理雜志離散應用數(shù)學雜志信息與知識管理雜志運籌學雜志運籌學學會雜志交通科學雜志工業(yè)與應用數(shù)學學會

The Journal of Public Transportation is an international peer-reviewed open access journal published by the Center for Urban Transportation Research (CUTR) at the University of South Florida, through the National Center for Transit Research. The Journal contains original research and case studies associated with various forms of public transportation and related transportation and policy issues. Topics are approached from a variety of academic disciplines, including engineering, planning, economics, geography, public policy, political science, and others, and include policy, methodological, technological, and financial aspects. Emphasis is placed on the identification of innovative solutions to public transportation problems.CUTR and its National Center for Transit Research strive to help improve the performance and relevance of public transportation and other forms of active transportation. Much of CUTR's research is applied, practical research, in support of implementation of innovative solutions, and is designed to assist those who plan, design, operate, and maintain transit and paratransit systems, commuter assistance programs, and first-mile/last-mile components that support public transportation.Paper ContentUp to 40 papers per year are published in the Journal of Public Transportation, which is produced on a limited budget, a fiscal constraint that requires us to establish priorities in the types of papers we will publish. As such, the articles included in the Journal should be accessible and understandable by personnel in transit properties or related services so the findings can be used to the benefit of passengers, agencies, and communities.Papers featuring case studies should do more than use already-accepted methodologies and share findings; the research should advance the state of knowledge and should feature lessons learned and techniques that can be generalized so the information is useful in other locales that may have similar challenges.Papers that are highly technical/mathematical and/or very academic in nature that might be beyond the comprehension of most transit or related agency personnel are not encouraged. Authors should consider submitting these papers to more technical journals such as:Annals of Operations ResearchComputers and Industrial EngineeringEuropean Journal of Operational ResearchEuropean Journal of Scientific ResearchInternational Journal of Applied Management and TechnologyInternational Journal of Project ManagementJournal of Discrete Applied MathematicsJournal of Information and Knowledge ManagementJournal of Operations ResearchJournal of Operations Research SocietyJournal of Transportation ScienceSociety for Industrial and Applied Mathematics
