ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

	The conference will combine the 5th International Conference on Weigh-in-Motion (ICWIM 5) and the 10th International Symposium on Heavy Vehicle Transport Technology (HVTT 10).
	ICWIM has been held every three or four years since 1995, in Zûrich, Lisbon, Orlando and Taipei.
	ISHVWD has been held every two or three years since 1986, in Kelowna, Cambridge, Ann Arbor, Maroochydore, Saskatoon, Delft, Johannesburg and State College.
	In 2008, both conferences will be held in Paris as one conference on Heavy Vehicles with two parts, each of them scientifically managed by its own committee. Common plenary sessions will welcome keynote papers, while each part (ICWIM 5 and HVTT 10) will run in parallel sessions.
	Registration will be for the whole conference and delegates will be able to attend any session.
	The conference will address the broad range of technical issues related to heavy vehicles, surface transport technology, safety and weight measurement systems. It will provide access to current research, best practice, and related policy issues. It is a multi-disciplinary, inter-agency supported event.
