Joint Statement on the Weights and Dimensions Directive

In a joint statement, the European rail sector highlighted the detrimental impact that the revision of the Weights and Dimensions Directive could have on sustainable and intermodal freight transport.

As the Commission, the Council and the European Parliament prepare for interinstitutional negotiations, the European associations representing rail and intermodal transport urge EU legislators not to lose sight of the broader, long-term vision of a logistics ecosystem that is interoperable and capable of delivering on shared transport, energy, climate, environmental, and social objectives.
