Drivers and cargo at risk: EU needs more safe and secure truck parking IRU joined forces with the European Transport Workers' Federation (ETF) and the ESPORG vzw to call upon the European Commission to continue its efforts co-funding safe and secure truck parking areas in Europe for the period 2025-2027. Additional funding is critical, not only to enhance cargo safety and security, but also to significantly improve the working conditions of our drivers, ensuring that they have the necessary infrastructure to succeed and thrive professionally. As we look forward to further modernising and expanding these essential facilities, we call on Member States and regional authorities to join us in this crucial initiative. Together, we can strengthen the backbone of the EU economy – the #roadtransport sector – and make it a more attractive and sustainable option for current and potential drivers. Read more ⬇️

🔴 The European Commission fines České dráhy and Österreichische Bundesbahnen €48.7 million over collusion to exclude common competitor 👇 ⛔ ČD and ÖBB colluded to prevent a new entrant, RegioJet, from accessing used wagons, thus restricting competition in the rail passenger transport market. 🔍 The Commission's investigation found that, between 2012 and 2016, ČD and ÖBB colluded to maintain their market position and impede RegioJet's expansion in Czechia and on the international rail route between Prague and Vienna, in breach of EU Competition rules. In particular, the Commission found that ČD and ÖBB: 📌 Collusively timed wagon sales so that RegioJet could not buy ÖBB's used wagons; 📌 Rigged ÖBB's used wagon sales procedures so that ČD could buy the wagons instead of RegioJet; 📌 Agreed on a suitable buyer other than RegioJet for ÖBB's used wagons that ČD was not interested in; 📌 Exchanged confidential information about the bids and degree of interest of other bidders participating in the sales. In setting the level of fines, the Commission took into account various elements, including the serious nature of the infringement, its geographic scope and its duration.

🚃❌ EC fines incumbents ČD and ÖBB nearly 50 million EUR for preventing RegioJet from buying essential wagons! 💡Very interesting decision by the EC with great importance for #openaccess providers. While conspiring to exclude competitors is logically problematic under #competition law, this decision shows the importance of new entrants in the European #passenger #railway market and high demand for new and used carriages.

Another positive action by the European Commission to tackle harmful cartels that hurt not only competitors and the competition landscape but also all of us who love to take trains. Bravo to the whole team within DG Comp and other Commission services! The EC has fined České dráhy and Österreichische Bundesbahnen €48.7 million for colluding to block competitor RegioJet from accessing used wagons, restricting competition in the rail passenger market between 2012 and 2016 in breach of EU competition rules. #Antitrust #EUCompetition #Railways

Another milestone for our Frankfurt CargoHub: a new Cargo Dashboard service will display incoming cargo volumes and processes at #frankfurtairport in real time. The aim of the Dashboard is to provide participating companies in the community with a comprehensive overview of current operating conditions. Companies can use this data to assess these conditions realistically, allowing them to adjust their processes if necessary. The dashboard, which will be integrated into the FAIR@Link cargo community system, provides decision-makers in the cargo community in particular with valuable insights into the current process quality and efficiency. The innovation from allivate has been made possible thanks to comprehensive data from the systems of numerous companies and the joint expertise of Fraport and IT firm DAKOSY. The willingness of the companies at the site to cooperate and provide their data transparently is particularly noteworthy. This underlines the close and trusting cooperation within the cargo community, which played a key role in the development. #FutureOfCargo #cargo #frankfurtairport #fraport #ConnectingTheWorldWithTomorrow
Exciting developments are unfolding in the bus sector. In line with their manifesto, The Labour Party is taking action to devolve greater powers over bus services to local authorities, promising a "bus revolution." Since taking control of bus services last year, Transport for Greater Manchester has seen impressive improvements in reliability and patronage on their Bee Network: "Over the past six months, the number of people using buses in those areas has increased by 5%, with the week ending 18 May recording the highest weekly patronage to date since franchising started, with over 849,000 passenger journeys. The punctuality of services is also consistently outperforming both the current non-franchised network, and the pre-franchised network that operated over the same period last year, with more than 80% of services (82.9%) running on time, between 28 April and 23 June, compared with 68.7% over the same period 12 months ago." https://lnkd.in/ekp6FNyR
