Preface

During 2020 and 2021, the editors of this book had several discussions on public participation in the field of transport and the limited research in the field. These discussions led to new research projects, but also to this book. We saw the production of an edited volume on the topic as an attractive opportunity, as it allowed us to gather scholars within the field for interesting discussions on the topic that highlighted both the diversity and the complexity of the issue.

By means of a global call for contributions, we gathered in November 2021 selected authors in an inspiring digital two-day workshop, where all draft chapters were scrutinised and discussed. This was followed by review processes and adding of additional chapters, and we think the result is a book full of interesting and relevant cases and perspectives, one that fills a gap in the literature on public participation in transport.

We would like to express our gratitude to all chapter authors for their engagement in the book. There has been a lot to learn from the collaboration. Lisa and Tom further would like to thank the Faculty of Logistics at the Molde University College for providing the working conditions that made the work possible. Claus would like to thank The Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute (VTI), The Swedish Knowledge Centre for Public Transport (K2) as well as the research programme, Mistra SAMS for funding his work with the book. We are also very grateful to Mira K.C. from Molde University College who helped on much of the practical work at the end of the submission process.

Last but not least, we would like to thank our families for their support and understanding throughout the process.
