The Transport Working Group’s overall aim is to promote more energy-efficient, environmental friendly and safer European transport by developing and implementing specific national and international activities / programmes and through the provision of evidence based policy positions on key transport issues.
Specific objectives are:
- Exchange of information on national and international policies, programmes, joint projects and experiences
- Facilitating partnerships with third parties for international projects
- Building common positions on respective policies aiming at stimulating more energy-efficient, environmental friendly and safe transport
- Designing and implementing joint projects to promote energy-efficient, environmentally friendly and smart integrated transport
- Exchange of information with the European Commission, including DG TREN & DG ENV
The Transport Working Group has secured funding for a number of legacy European projects, for example, I-CVUE, Treatise, Ecodriven and Trainer. The Group has also provided a useful forum for sharing national policy updates, discussing EU policy issues and developing joint responses to consultations.
