We invite you at the New Year Event of the Department of Transportation Planning and Engineering of NTUA which will take place on Tuesday January 28th 2025 at 13:30, at the Amphitheater of Railways and Transport.

Please note that at 13:15, before the start of the event, we will take a photo of all members of the Section together on the balcony of the 2nd floor of the New Wing B.

On January 20 2025, Section-A of the Zografou Polytechnic Campus ring road was put into use, following the completion of the asphalt paving restoration works.

It is noted that this section was the most damaged and that its restoration was carried out according to modern specifications and with a better asphalt quality category. Pavement Engineering Laboratory and the Departement of Transportation Planning and Engineering of the School of Civil Engineering contributed substantially to the design and supervision.

The NTUA Technical Service expressed special thanks to Ms. Christina Plati, Director of the Pavement Engineering Laboratory and Mr. George Yannis, Head of the Departement of Transportation Planning and Engineering , as well as to all the staff who contributed for the achievement of the design and construction of the project.

Eng. Roberto Ventura, Assistant Professor at the University of Brescia (Italy), gave a lecture which took place on Wednesday, October 2nd 2024 at the Amphitheater of Railways and Transport of the Department of Transportation Planning and Engineering of NTUA, entitled “Traffic Hazard on Main Road Bridges: Real-Time Evaluation and Management of the Risk Related to Design Load Overcoming Events”.

In this lecture, we will explore the risk of bridges within road networks due to traffic load hazards, a key focus of Eng. Ventura’s research. Bridges can experience failures that undermine their serviceability or even lead to collapse. Since traffic load hazards are among the primary causes of bridge failures, evaluating the associated risk and implementing real-time risk management strategies are essential for ensuring the safety of road infrastructures.
