Supported by the governments of its member countries, the WRA aims to promote international cooperation in roads and road transport. Expert teams draw up recommendations on different road-transport related issues during their four-year term as WRA committee members.
The Road Transport System Economics and Social Development Committee focuses on transport in terms of reliability and on ex-post evaluation which is carried out in order to assess the impacts of a project and whether it achieved its original objectives. This type of evaluation is performed for projects around the world. In the field of transport reliability, experts will establish common principles to define reliability in different climatic, economic and cultural environments. Their research activities will be based on case studies provided by the member countries.
