Objective
The aim is to study the dynamic interaction of a road or rail vehicle with its infrastructure and to agree solutions that will reduce the environmental and economic impact of freight traffic. This involves collation and analysis of characteristic data and key source documents, running an economic model which transparently allocates the costs amongst road or rail freight users and developing environmental acceptability criteria for different classes of vehicles and infrastructures. The user group to be established will reach out to infrastructure maintainers, vehicle operators, manufacturers, stakeholders, Member State representatives and the Commission, in order to establish a widely accepted and sustainable consensus. Outputs will help implementation of current directives on interoperability (01/016) and intermodality (92/106) and the priorities set out in the EU's White Paper on Transport and the EU's Climate Change Program
