This conference is the 13th in the series that serves as a forum for the international community of researchers, practitioners and vendors on all aspects of public transport planning and operations.

CASPT covers significant contributions to the theory and application of systems and methodologies for advancing and improving public transport planning and operations. CASPT does not only encourage the generation and presentation of new ideas, but also intends to instigate productive collaborations between participants from academia, industry, and government.

To reflect the expanded scope of the conference series, the conference took in 2009 its new title “Conference on Advanced Systems in Public Transport” from its previous title “Computer-Aided Scheduling of Public Transport”.
