    Le mardi 10 avril 2001 en soirée, les responsables français du fret ferroviaire ne pouvaient toujours pas indiquer une date précise en ce qui concerne le retour à un service normal: plus d’une dizaine de centres persistent dans la grève et environ 700 rames fret restent bloquées en divers points du réseau.

Rien que pour le fret, le coût de la grève représente déjà plusieurs centaines de millions de FRF.

Il a été moins évasif en nous annonçant que ce trafic pourrait concerner soit le secteur atlantique, soit la relation Europe-Asie.

L’IRU applaudit à cette initiative mais souligne qu’il s’agit d’une solution locale à court terme, alors que le problème est régional et de longue durée. L’organisation internationale du transport routier demande dès lors à la Suisse de mettre en place les mesures nécessaires à une mobilité continue des personnes et des marchandises.
