Webinar series: ‘How to conduct and publish excellent research on traffic safety’
The upcoming speaker is Henk Stipdonk, The Netherlands Knowledge Institute for Transport Policy Analysis (KiM)
The Traffic Safety Research journal opens a special submission track in connection to the 3rd AfroSAFE conference, held in Lusaka, Zambia, on 8–12 June 2026.
The conference participants may submit full papers based on the work presented at the conference. The ‘Acknowledgments’ section of the paper must contain the text: ‘An earlier version of this work was presented at the 3rd AfroSAFE conference, held in Lusaka, Zambia, on 8–12 June 2026.’
At the start of the submission, choose the section ‘Special submission AfroSAFE 2026’. This will ensure that your manuscript follows the correct editorial track.
The general guidelines for authors can be found here. We strongly recommend the authors to get familiar with the suggested submission template, particularly with regards to the compulsory declarations and statements to be included at the end of the manuscript.
All submissions will be subject to the journal's standard peer review process (read more here), handled by the regular editorial team.
Submission period: 1 June–31 September 2026
Publication fees: Traffic Safety Research applies a production fee for the accepted manuscripts. The fee is kept intentionally low and is directly based on the upfront cost to prepare an ‘average’ TSR article for publication (no profit intended).
