Weights and Dimensions of Heavy Duty Vehicles
Proposal for a DIRECTIVE OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL amending Council Directive 96/53/EC laying down for certain road vehicles circulating within the Community the maximum authorised dimensions in national and international traffic and the maximum authorised weights in international traffic
- Initiative summary:
- Commercial road transport vehicles circulating in the EU carrying goods or passengers have to meet the allowable weights and dimensions, set out in the Directive 96/53/EC, and the national legislation. This initiative will evaluate if the regulatory framework ensures smooth functioning of the internal market and improves environmental performance of these vehicles while safeguarding the road safety. On this basis, it will assess options to address the identified regulatory and market failures.
