Environmental performance of freight transport (Marco Polo)

This procedure aims to enhance the environmental sustainability of freight transport across the EU. It focuses on shifting freight from road to more eco-friendly modes like rail, inland waterways, and combined transport, thereby reducing pollution and congestion.

The initiative affects the logistics sector, transport companies, and potentially consumers through more efficient and greener supply chains. It seeks to promote cleaner and more sustainable ways of moving goods within and between member states.
