As you know, transport is a key pillar of the single market, allowing for the free movement of goods and people across borders. The cost and efficiency of transport services directly affect trade flows, mobility and the competitiveness of European companies.

Such national measures will not only have a disruptive impact on the transport sector, but also on the free movement of goods and services as such, going against the principles of the single market as set out by the EU Treaties.
