Good news! On February 24, 2025, We received a letter from DOAJ that Journal of Highway and Transportation Research and Development (English Edition) has been accepted for inclusion in DOAJ ( http://www.doaj.org/toc/2095-6215 ) . 

DOAJ, established in May 2003 by Lund University Library in Sweden,  is widely acknowledged as one of the most authoritative and globally recognized directories for open-access journals. It is considered one of the five major literature retrieval systems worldwide, along with SCI, Scopus, EI, and PubMed.   

DOAJ is committed to indexing high-quality, multidisciplinary, and multilingual open-access journals, thereby enhancing the transparency, accessibility, and utilization of academic resources while providing researchers with convenient, comprehensive services. Journals indexed by DOAJ undergo stringent quality control processes to ensure they meet high standards of peer review and offer significant reference value and influence for academic research. Inclusion in DOAJ not only signifies recognition of a journal's academic quality and publishing standards but also expands the dissemination channels for authors' research, thereby significantly enhancing the global visibility and impact of their contributions.
