infrastructure in the Baltic Sea Region” examines the goods movement and
maritime infrastructure as well as the likely future development and
demand of maritime transport in the Baltic Sea region.
The purpose of the report is to contribute to an increased knowledge of
the current situation as well as the likely future development of
maritime transport in the Baltic Sea Region. It targets both the
intra-regional and extra-regional dimensions of trade and transport.
Such knowledge is necessary for the further development of transport
policies, infrastructure planning, other joint actions in the Baltic Sea
region and the development within industry.

freight in Europe towards fulfilling the objectives of the Lisbon agenda
and the Transport White Paper "European transport policy for 2010: time

European Commission's Communication on Freight Logistics:
The European Commission adopted on 28. June 2006 a communication on
freight transport logistics (Reported on earlier in LogOnBaltic
Newsletter 1/2006). The communication highlights the need for an overall
approach to the improvement of transport logistics and rehearses the
issues in preparation for an action plan in 2007 to promote such
logistics. Transport logistics makes it possible to optimise flows of
goods. Logistics is thus an essential tool for meeting the challenges of
growing mobility and competitiveness. It is also a means of reducing the
adverse effects of mobility, such as pollution, congestion and energy
dependence.
The Communication is available on
http://ec.europa.eu/transport/logistics/index_en.htm
