  • Mobilisation dans le transport routier face à la hausse du diesel
    Les gouvernements des divers Etat-membres de l'UE commencent à dangereusement jouer avec le feu en n'intervenant pas pour soulager les transporteurs routiers victimes de la flambée du prix du gasoil routier. Celui a à nouveau augmenté (voir l'encadré) et les transporteurs, qui n'arrivent pas à répercuter la hausse dans leurs prix, doivent puiser de plus en plus profondément dans leurs réserves. En France, la FNTR s'est faite menaçante, En Belgique, le ministe des Finances ne prévoit aucune intervention avant octobre 2001 et aux Pays-Bas, la crise est jugée tellement grave que trois organisations rivales se sont mises à se concerter.
  • La France sera-t-elle amenée à revoir son concept de libéralisation du rail?
    L'orientation assez spectaculaire prise par les autorités italiennes en matière de libéralisation du transport ferroviaire, constitue une véritable percée dans le bon sens pour ce qui est de l'Europe du Sud et partant, le tandem gouvernement français/SNCF risque de se trouver le plus en plus isolé avec son concept de libéralisation très timide, très partiel et conditionné. Un processus est enclenché qu'il sera de plus en plus difficile de contrecarrer, d'autant plus que l'UE semble désireuse de l'accélérer.
  • Confreight Group offre désormais des services express
    Le groupe d'expédition et de groupage international anversois Confreight Group a acquis une participation majoritaire dans l'entreprise Express Solutions, basée à Brucargo. Selon un communiqué du groupe, le besoin d'offrir des services de porte-à-porte se faisait de plus en plus sentir. Confreight a également augmenté sérieusement sa capacité d'entreposage à Brucargo.
