the launch of our new journal, <em>Active Travel Studies<\/em>.\u00a0 Published by the University of Westminster Press, Active Travel Studies will be a peer-reviewed journal featuring the most authoritative and current research findings that relate to all things active-travel.\u00a0 This includes walking and cycling, of course, but also embraces less discussed forms of travel \u2013 skate-boarding, run-commuting, kayaking\u2026\u00a0 The scope of the journal extends to the context of active travel and will therefore feature relevant work on other parts of the transport system and transport cultures more generally. \u00a0We describe <em>Active Travel Studies<\/em> as interdisciplinary, acknowledging the nature of the topic, and will welcome contributions that reflect multiple disciplinary perspectives.<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-392\"

\/><\/p><p>All research articles will be peer-reviewed to ensure the journal meets academic standards.\u00a0 But we shall have a slightly less strait-laced approach to content than many editorial boards.\u00a0 In fact, we will welcome interviews, debates and reviews in addition to the more familiar article format.\u00a0 And multi-media submissions will be possible too, alongside classical written matter.\u00a0 The best bit?\u00a0 <em>Active Travel Studies<\/em> will be open-access, so the widest possible audience will be able to benefit from its content immediately and at no cost.<\/p><p>The current plan is to issue our first formal call for submissions in June with the aim of publishing our first articles (or debates, or interviews\u2026) in October of this year.\u00a0 So we urge you to start thinking now about items that you might submit to the journal when the time comes.\u00a0 Please direct any questions in the meantime to <a
