Christine Laurence asked:
>What is the utsg list? Could you send me details?

As it happens I recently prepared a list of several listerver lists on
transport, including the utsg list. I am sure it is not comprehensive but
here it is.


UTSG

UTSG (Universities Transport Study Group) Electronic Mailing List
(UK-based). An electronic discussion forum and information resource for
researchers in the field of transport, primarily in the academic community.
This list does not generally welcome discussion and debate but does welcome
announcements, information requests and questions.

Rural Transport and Development (IFRTD) projects.

Alt-transp list

Western countries, especially North America but sustainable transport
advocates elsewhere may still find some postings useful.

And, of course there are SUSTRAN's own lists:

SUSTRAN News Flashes

developing and newly industrialised countries generally.
