Che ne è della politica comune dei trasporti?

Abstract

The need for an urgent application of a common transport policy in view of pursuing the European economic integration is denied by no-one, Naturally, this policy cannot account for the modalities and potential of the transport sector. Hence, a number of problems arise with reference to the harmonization of the rides on competition, as well as the need for the restructuring of national transport systems; on the other hand, there is the need to adapt infrastructures to traffic requirements. Notwithstanding, at present, there still seem to be much uncertainty and severe delays in adopting adequate community transport policy measures. Hence, there is a distinct impression that decision makers are less and less inclined to press for a common transport policy. One therefore cannot help but wonder: what has happened to the idea of a common transport policy?
