A roadmap for a thriving EU commercial road transport industry
The commercial road transport industry is the backbone of the EU’s economy and society. Road transport is more than just the delivery of goods and services; it is about connecting communities, supporting businesses and driving progress.
IRU, the world transport organisation, representing over one million companies in the EU, outlines its vision for a safe, prosperous and sustainable passenger and goods road transport industry.
Our priorities are defined around three key areas: people, environment and prosperity.
The IRU Manifesto outlines the support the sector needs to improve working conditions, increase talent recruitment and retention, boost diversity and inclusion, and reinforce training and certification.
The IRU Manifesto calls for supporting the sector's commitment to reducing its carbon footprint with realistic vehicle standards, investment in green infrastructure, and harmonised urban access rules.
The IRU Manifesto calls for better digital infrastructure to reduce bureaucracy and increase efficiency, clearer in-vehicle data rules, and vehicle standards that encourage modal cooperation.
