ANITA, absurd the will of the Austrian government to restore the controls to the frontiers
Baumgartner: the consequences would provoke heavy fallen back on the productive field and that of the transport services
February 19, 2016
ANITA, Italian association of the road haulage enterprises goods and logistics, has defined "absurd" the will of the Austrian government to restore the controls to the frontiers of Brenner and Tarvisio in order to block the irregular incomes of the coming migrants from the border with Italy. The association has emphasized that draft of "a drastic provision that is provoking abashment in Italy and Europe, particularly in the field of the road haulage goods and the logistics, since such situation would bring back itself at the beginning of the Nineties, before the fall of the tariff barriers that were situated on the internal borders of the European Union, annulling 30 years of communitarian integration".
"If indeed they were restored the controls to the frontiers - it has found ANITA president, Thomas Baumgartner - the consequences would provoke heavy fallen back on the productive field and on that of the transport services whom they give years are calibrated on times of delivery just in Time".
"The flow of the vehicles that daily cross the axis of Brenner, the most traded broken than connection between Italy and Europe - has explained Baumgartner - he is such that the control activity will involve inevitables times of wait. A firm truck coast to the company about 60 euros the hour, therefore, with a sun delay two hours we can suppose an increase of the hires of 10% that will fall back without a doubt on the costs and, therefore, on the prices of the produced ones and, consequently, on the final consumer. A scene in which the Italian produced one would lose competitiveness with intuitable glares on the export and you damn for all national the economic system".
"The field automotive for the componentry, but also the row of feeding, in order to only cite of some - it has still observed the ANITA president - would endure the greater consequences. moreover, the productive world by now is imprinted on times of delivery many expresses and often it uses the industrial vehicles as "warehouses" for storage of the goods. Therefore, a change of such capacity would put in difficulty all the manifacturing and commercial system, which would not have a chance for adapt in times breviums. It does not have to be underrated, then, the fact that the firm vehicles in tail mainly are exposed to intrusion attempts, so as still happens in the crosswalk of the Strait of the Handle".
"The waits to the frontiers, beyond increasing the times of yield of the goods - it has concluded Baumgartner - would go to compress the times of guide of the drivers, reducing some the productivity. An effect of which Europe cannot not consider and introduce, consequently, puts up flexibility on the times of guide and rest of leading".
