OS policies have largely developed over the last years in the EU, and beyond. This session will discuss the state of play of OS in transport research from different perspectives (Policy maker, Publisher, Funding Agency, Researcher) as well as the challenges and opportunities from that OS brings to the transport research community. Ultimately it will explore how to strengthen the engagement of such community in implementing OS principles so to make it the new normal in transport research.
