The Roads & Road Transport History
Association, founded in 1992, promotes, encourages and co-ordinates the
study of the history of roads, road passenger transport and the carriage of
goods. In 2005, the Association became a Company Limited by Guarantee.
We cover the whole range of transport history
from the earliest times to the current age ...
packhorses,
carters, street furniture, economics, social trends, the effects of gender
upon transport, personalities in road transport, avenues of research,
regulation by governments or local authorities, manufacturers and
bodybuilders, cycling, sources of transport history, the preservation of
artefacts, photographic material, the exploration of archives, the need to
promote transport and logistics as a career, a general, boundless interest
in transport, and even quite simple nostalgia.
This breadth of interests contributes to valuable cross-fertilisation.
We aim to encourage those interested in a particular aspect of transport, to
understand their chosen subject in the context of developments in other
areas and at other periods.
