Dear All, The Transport Geography Research Group's all-day session at the 2002 RGS-IBG Annual Conference in Belfast (January 2-6) will address the theme Transport: dividing communities? Papers might address transport-related issues of social exclusion and their causes and impacts, (e.g. car dependence, privatisation and deregulation of transport provision, the efficacy of government policies designed to promote integration) or, at the wider level, arrangements for transport provision in devolutionary settings (a potentially 'divisive' example is Scottish railways in the UK). We hope the session will attract a broad range of contributions from a variety of international researchers and abstracts should be sent to Brian Graham ([log in to unmask]) or Jon Shaw ([log in to unmask]), the session convenors, before July 30th. Many thanks indeed. ------------ Dr Jon Shaw Department of Geography and Environment University of Aberdeen Elphinstone Road Aberdeen AB24 3UF United Kingdom Tel: +44 (0)1224 273837 Fax: +44 (0)1224 272331 [log in to unmask] OPEN DAY 28 AUGUST 2001
