On the agenda:
1) The European Commissioner for Mobility and Transport, Mrs Violeta Bulc, will welcome the new TRAN Committee Members and present the Commission's priority files for the coming months.
2) The TRAN committee will have a discussion on the progress and potential of modal shift from road to more sustainable transport modes, with respect to the policy objectives set in the 2011 White Paper on transport. The study Modal shift in the European transport: a way forward, presented by Mr Enrico Pastori, TRT Trasporti e Territorio, will focus both on passenger and freight transport, highlighting main barriers and factors that are hampering a more effective modal shift at EU level and providing policy recommendations for the way forward.
