AB Transport and transport research are significant carriers of economic activities. They play a crucial role in the assurance of sustainable development, and the economic and social growth of Europe. The European transport sector needs to be effective, which means creating an appropriate coordination framework and balancing public and private sources for the support of necessary research activities. Therefore, for the realization of scientific research projects in the following period the use of their results in practice will be of essential importance. The possibility of the application of projects of science and research will be, e.g. in the field of prediction of development of individual fields of transport, in the creation and preparation of regulation, legislation frameworks for the development of the transport system, for organizational and other measures in the field of transport safety, in the realization of support of development of new technical and technological solutions leading to reduction of economic costs of the transport process and in the reduction of negative effects of transport on the environment. Regarding transport and urban planning, after the integration of the environmental and social aspects in the research activities,, the new cooperation could further bring a positive impact on the health of people and the environment.
