European Policy – Shift Towards Sustainable Transport EBU Findings 1.Inland navigation has a positive impact on the environmental performance of transport. 2. European policy: keep Europe moving, support cleaner modes and use less congested infrastructure. A stimulation policy is needed for modes that contribute most to this policy - mainly inland navigation. 3. TEN-T policy: support waterborne transport with substantial infrastructural measures and financial means to remove the existing bottlenecks and to realise missing links in the European waterway system. Modal shift towards inland shipping contributes to an improvement of the environmental performance of transport to developing a sustainable transport system in general.
