The YRS2023 - 11th Young Researchers Seminar was held from 15 to 17 May 2023 in Lisbon, Portugal, hosted and organised by the Laboratório Nacional de Engenharia Civil – LNEC (National Laboratory for Civil Engineering). It followed a series of seminars that were organised so far in 2003-Lyon, France; 2005-The Hague, The Netherlands; 2007-Brno, Czech Republic; 2009-Torino, Italy; 2011-Copenhagen, Denmark; 2013-Lyon, France; 2015-Rome, Italy; 2017-Berlin, Germany; 2019-Thessaloniki, Greece; and 2021-Portorož, Slovenia. This edition offered the opportunity to a network of young transport researchers from Members of ECTRI, FEHRL, FERSI, EURNEX, and HUMANIST to gather and interact during the three-day seminar, where young researchers were able to improve their presentation skills in written and oral scientific communication by tutorial means. The tutoring was done by senior researchers who themselves acted in a truly international scientific culture. The seminar focuses on following research domains: Transport economics, policy, and transport behaviour Transport sustainability and environment Transport safety Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) & Traffic management Transport logistics and freight Transport engineering (including road and railway infrastructures) These proceedings contain the contributions to the YRS2023, from 14 different European countries. From the 34 full paper contributions to the seminar by the Young Researchers, some are made available to the public in these proceedings. Most contributions are contained in the proceedings in form of a full paper or in the form of the respective presentation. Some are contained in the two formats. A unique DOI (Digital Object Identifier) has been assigned to each submitted paper and to each presentation (when available).
