Following the success of the previous five editions, UIC has decided to support this initiative annually to be organised by the University of Naples Federico II. The aim of this Symposium is to explore recent research on the analysis and quantification of the effects, both on economy and on society, of investments in HSR systems.

Papers focusing on the impacts on productivity; on the land use system, such as activity and residential location choice; on the tourism industry; on the property market as well as on pricing policies; on project evaluation; on competition and integration with other transport modes; on equity and inclusion, etc. are welcome. Papers will be accepted for presentation at the Symposium, describing either a theoretical or an empirical perspective approach.

Information about the Symposium is also available on the www.dicea.unina.it and www.uic.org websites.
