Journal Descriptions

The Journal of Transport History is a respected, peer‑reviewed academic journal dedicated to advancing scholarly understanding of the historical dimensions of transport and mobility. It publishes original research papers, book reviews, shorter surveys and speculations, and reviews of transport museums and exhibitions, welcoming contributions from diverse methodologies and historical periods. The journal’s scope encompasses histories of transport infrastructure, systems, and services — including roads, railways, air, sea and urban transport — as well as the lived experiences of mobility, planning and policy developments, and the social and cultural impacts of transport change. As the adopted journal of T2M – The International Association for the History of Transport, Traffic and Mobility, it seeks to deepen understanding of agency and consequences in transport history, while challenging received wisdom and opening new lines of scholarly inquiry. Contributors draw on multidisciplinary perspectives to explore how transport has shaped societies — from local communities to global networks — and how past mobilities inform present and future debates on infrastructure, mobility justice, technology, and environmental change. The journal is widely indexed in academic databases and serves historians, planners, geographers, and other researchers interested in the long‑term narratives and processes of transport and mobility.
