Priorities for the EU transport sector beyond 2024 - a BusinessEurope position paper

Key messages

With this paper, BusinessEurope sets out its priorities and key recommendations for future EU transport policy for the sector as a whole, followed by specific priorities for each transport mode. In the 2024-2029 legislative cycle, BusinessEurope calls on EU policymakers to:

• Guarantee a level playing field with third-country competitors, remove all barriers to cross-border EU transport and logistics services and promote multimodality and interoperability between the different transport modes, while ensuring fair competition.
• Ensure adequate funding for European infrastructure projects for all modes and a timely completion of the trans-European transport network, and strengthen infrastructure serving multimodal, innovative, and sustainable transport solutions.
• Create the right enabling conditions for the decarbonisation of all modes of transport and support technology neutrality in the green transition of the sector.
• Ensure adequate cybersecurity of the transport and logistics sector, fully unlock the potential of mobility data from all transport modes and multimodal transport and support the development and deployment of ICT systems and digital infrastructure.
