PIARC, the World Road Association, is a century-old international non-profit industry organization founded in 1909. It currently has government members from 125 countries worldwide, holds consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council, and is positioned as the official forum for knowledge and experience exchange in the global road and road transport sector, working to promote the stable and sustainable development of the road industry.
The website makes a large volume of industry resources available to the public: it publishes authoritative technical reports categorized by themes including safety and resilience, sustainable development, mobility, and road management, regularly releases the industry journal Routes/Roads, updates online handbooks for fields such as road safety and asset management, and also offers an online road dictionary supporting 37 languages that contains 16,000 professional terms. At the same time, it publishes call for papers and registration information in advance for industry events including the World Road Congress and thematic seminars, and accepts membership registration applications.
On the advantage side, backed by road authorities from countries all over the world, the organization's research output is extremely authoritative. It covers current cutting-edge topics such as road decarbonization, safety, and resilient construction, most of its research resources are available for free, and it has extremely high reference value for industry research. The disadvantages are that its core internal workspace is only open to members, inaccessible to general users, and the website only provides interfaces in a small number of languages such as English with no Chinese support, creating a relatively high barrier for general users in China.
The website can be accessed directly in China currently, no proxy is required. It is ideal for staff of China's transportation industry authorities, road engineering researchers, and university teachers and students in the transportation field to obtain cutting-edge global references on road policies and technologies.
