International freight and collective passenger transport account for the majority of transport services and are the only high-quality and flexible modes connecting every individual and every business, to all local, national, European and global markets. Therefore, this IRU Resolution calls on the European Union and its Member States to acknowledge the vital role that road transport has to play in driving economic growth in Europe, to lift, without delay, the impediments and barriers imposed on the road transport sector, to reintroduce the TIR System in the EU and to support the Smart Move campaign.
