Awards

Each year, AET makes a number of prestigious awards to recognise the best papers presented at the European Transport Conference. Papers considered for these awards will be reviewed by a subject-panel made up of senior academics and professionals from across the transport community. The awards include:

  • The Martlet Award for the best written paper by a sole author under the age of 35 on public transport planning and/or management showing both innovation and application

  • The MVA Award for the Best Paper by any author on Sustainable Transport Solutions showing innovation leading to a sustainable transport solution

  • The Neil Mansfield Award for the Best Paper by a sole author aged 35 or under

  • The Sir Colin Buchanan Award for a plan, strategy, project or piece of significant research or experimentation that reflects the work and thinking of Sir Colin Buchanan

If you think you are eligible and you have a paper that you feel will satisfy the guidelines of the judging panels, you should submit your paper for one or more of the awards by ticking the appropriate box when you register the details of your paper.

Winners of an AET award will not only have a valuable cash prize and a lasting memento of the award but, most important of all, they will have the benefit of a respected professional achievement.
