Anjan Ramesh Babu, Ph.D., a structural bridge engineer in STV’s Richmond, VA, office, was recently pointed handling editor on the prestigious Transportation Research Board’s (TRB) Transportation Research Record (TRR) Editorial Board.
The TRR is a collection of technical papers that have been accepted for publication through a rigorous peer review process. It is one of the most cited and prolific transportation journals in the world, offering coverage of myriad transportation-related topics.

“Being invited to serve as handling editor is a tremendous honor and responsibility,” Babu said. “It is a privilege to work alongside distinguished researchers and practitioners to shape our field’s discourse and promote innovative solutions to transportation issues. I am eager to contribute my expertise and passion to this esteemed community and look forward to advancing transportation infrastructure research and knowledge.”
