ADBI-Chubu University Conference on Transport Infrastructure Development, Spill over Effects and Quality of Life 12 to 16 October 2020 Global leaders have in recent years endorsed a G20 roadmap and principles for promoting quality infrastructure investment to help catalyse economies and realize the Sustainable Development Goals. To take next steps toward these objectives, it is imperative to examine how transportation infrastructure, in particular, can enhance quality of life as well as mitigate the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic to human mobility, infrastructure, supply chains, logistics, and integrated mobility models. This ADBI-Chubu University virtual conference will feature new research on the spillover impacts of transportation infrastructure projects on the economy, environment, society, and quality of life, with an emphasis on high-speed rail (HSR) growth. Taking place in conjunction with Chubu University’s 80th-anniversary, it will also assess the effects of COVID-19 within the sector as well as provide a forum for members of the World Conference of Transportation Research Society’s Special Interest Group on High-Speed Rail: Policy, Investments and, Impacts. The objective of this virtual conference is to enhance capacity and increase knowledge among senior officials and experts on critical issues related to the planning, implementation, and operation of transport infrastructure in Asia. The conference comprised ten sessions in which policy makers, practitioners, and academics can exchange views and share experiences on transport infrastructure projects and their spillover impacts on the economy, environment, society, and the quality of life.
