Please note, this event is invitation only, and has now been postponed until further notice.
CTS, based within UCL Civil, Environmental and Geomatic Engineering (CEGE), is a world leading multi-disciplinary transport centre that combines transport and city policy, strategy, development and implementation.
This reunion event, organised to celebrate the fact that the Centre has now achieved over 100 doctoral graduates, will take place in early April. Themes will centre on how time in the CTS has helped people to achieve, and how CTS should adapt to remain at the forefront of meeting new challenges. The event will also provide opportunity to recognise the 80th birthday of Emeritus Professor of Transport Studies Richard Allsop, and his outstanding contributions to academic transport teaching, research and practice, all of which have been of international importance, and have greatly benefited CTS.
Please note, the location of the Haldane Room within UCL's main Bloomsbury Campus is to be confirmed.
