Download or read book A European Single Market for Road Transport written by and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European market for road transport suffers from several imperfections: social conditions of workers are in a poor state and open market access for European transport companies within the EU is not fully implemented either. Some hauliers go around existing rules and make use of?letterbox? companies to circumvent labour laws of the country they are actually primarily operating inches Better protection of workers from such practices is essential. However, uncoordinated national initiatives to protect national workers (e.g. minimum wage laws, prohibition for drivers to have their regular weekly rest in the cabin of the vehicle) risk fragmenting the international road transport market in the EU. In 2016 the European Commission published its Road Transport Strategy for Europe, and the Florence Road Forum brought together the most relevant stakeholders and experts to discuss one of the major endeavours of the strategy: establishing a free market for transport services and protecting the workers in the sector from unfair competition. This European Transport Regulation Observer reflects upon the discussions at the first Florence Road Forum?A European single market for road transport?? that took place in Florence on January 23rd, 2017.

Download or read book The Liberalization of Transportation Services in the EU and Turkey written by Sübidey Togan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-06-17 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transport costs have been, and still are, an important component of trade costs, which are one the major determinants of the volume of trade, and thus of gross domestic product (GDP) and GDP growth. Studies show that two of the main determinants of transport costs are regulatory frameworks in transport sectors and transport infrastructure. The productivity and competitiveness of goods and services firms depends largely on access to low-cost and high-quality transport services, and those services have a powerful influence on economic growth. Countries commit themselves to increasing the efficiency of transport services, which can largely be achieved through increased competition and hence through liberalization of transport sectors. Since barriers to trade in transport services are typically regulatory in nature, this book provides a thorough discussion of international, regional, and country specific rules and regulations in those sectors. Concentrating on the EU, and Turkey in particular, it considers rules and regulations in transport sectors. It shows that economic liberalization pursued unilaterally, multilaterally, or regionally has beneficial effects for Turkey, and that the benefits from such liberalization are substantial. Furthermore, the volume shows that transport infrastructure is an important determinant of exports, and hence GDP and GDP growth.
Download or read book Integrating Europe s Transport System written by Wolfgang Roth and published by CEPS. This book was released on 2006 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Four years after the European Commission adopted its Transport White Paper, CEPS formed a Task Force of experienced practitioners to review European transport policy. The members of this Task Force are now publishing their findings and conclude that numerous challenges remain in the European transport arena. The release of this report is timed to coincide with the forthcoming mid-term review by the Commission of EU progress towards a single market for transport. Until recently, EU transport policy has been firmly wedded to the twin ideas of "decoupling' transport from economic growth and encouraging a 'modal shift' from road to rail, especially for freight transport. With economic growth in the doldrums and an urgent need to reinvigorate the Lisbon strategy, however, many now believe that transport policy should play a central role in the process of enhancing European competitiveness. While progress has been made towards a coherent, EU-wide road transport policy, less has been achieved for rail, air and sea in recent years. The CEPS transport group sees future transport demand set to grow more strongly than anticipated due to internal market reforms and globalisation. If this growth materialises, rather than favouring rail, all transport modes and technological options must be allowed to play their appropriate part in meeting Europe's escalating transport needs. The good news is that this time there are hopeful signs that these ideas are gaining ground in both the Commission and the Parliament" -- back cover.

This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Treaty of Rome vowed for the creation of common markets of goods, workers, services and capital within EEC. Besides, the creation of common transport and agricultural policy were also part of its objective. It is the matter of fact that the free movement of goods, services and persons cannot be realized without the common transport policy. Hence, one of the activities of EC in embracing the economic union is the adoption of the common policy in the sphere of transport as apparent from Art 3(f) of the EC Treaty . However, this task of adopting and implementing the common transport policy has not been an easy task for European Union to achieve.

Download or read book European Transport written by Theo Kiriazids and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-26 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1994, this volume responds to a key debate in the European Community, extant since the signing of the Single European Act (SEA) in 1986, in exploring the role of transportation in the creation of a Common Market with free movement of goods, people, capital and services. Critical of the EC’s compromise on transport between economic principles and political realities, this book seeks to address issues of international cooperation, lack of common approach and differences in national law and political systems along with the question of finance. Theo Kiriazidis responds to the EC’s argument on each transport sector in turn and examines how the existing transport system in 1994 could be better managed.
