The 1st International Conference on Road Transportation Research (ICRTR 2020), organized by Bangladesh Road Research Laboratory (BRRL), will be held during December 7-8, 2020, in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Transportation systems play an instrumental role in the development of a country. Therefore, it is imperative to make a transportation system efficient, reliable, cleaner and safer. However, these objectives become extremely difficult to achieve in the context of developing countries due to lack of resources and technical know-how. ICRTR 2020 will facilitate in-depth discussions about transportation.
