The Royal Geographical Society (with the Institute of British Geographers) 2012 Annual Conference provided a landmark for UK Transport Geography, being 40 years since the Transport Geography Research Groups group’s inauguration in 1972. As highlighted by Preston and O’Connor (2008) in the most recent book on the subject (Knowles et al., 2008), Transport Geography was initially aligned with the quantitative revolution in human geography and has since adopted more pluralistic methodologies, with more critical approaches informing the ‘new mobilities paradigm’. During the previous 40 years these developments were reflected in a book series, an international journal and through representation at the RGS-IBG annual conference. The 2012 conference provided an opportunity to celebrate these successes as well as the opportunity to explore the future of an established research group.This viewpoint considers our experience as researchers entering an accomplished research sub-discipline. In presenting this we interpret discussions from the workshop ‘Imagining the next 40 years of Transport Geography’that was co-organised by the authors. We also recognise the influence of other experiences of being Transport Geographers and refer to this and the wider literature, concentrating on the Journal of Transport Geography but also recognising a range of dissemination avenues used within the sub-discipline. In this viewpoint we consider some challenges for the field of Transport Geography over the next 40 years.
