EC plans a new transport strategy
The European Commission (EC) has drafted a new action plan for transport within the framework of the European Neighbourhood Policy, aimed at strengthening transport links with neighbouring regions to the east and south of the European Union (EU). The document, published on July 7, includes more than 20 short-term and long-term specific measures for the establishment of trouble-free, safer and more reliable transport links. The drafters believe that this would deepen market integration, which would be beneficial to both the EU and its neighbouring regions.
The key steps for connecting the transport systems of the European Community and its neighbours include the expansion of EU’s domestic aviation market and the Single European Sky to neighbouring regions, as well as connecting the Trans-European Transport Network with the infrastructure of EU’s neighbours through priority transportation projects. Better use of the opportunities for railroad transportation has been projected by opening up markets and the elimination of technical barriers such as the difference in the width of railroad tracks. The establishment of an Eastern Partnership Group in the sector has been planned. The new structure will work more actively in the field of regional cooperation in the transport sector.
While presenting the document EC’s Vice President Siim Kallas said: “If we want to seriously develop relations with our neighbours, we need to provide the infrastructure which is vital for the movement of goods and people crossing borders, and to eliminate red tape and hindrances.”
