  • La Febiac veut créer un forum permanent pour la mobilité durable

C’est ce qu’a anoncé l’association de transporteurs allemands BSL. Cette hausse intervient après une autre augmentation, de 5% cette fois, en mai 2001. Le 1er janvier, la BSL avait publié un communiqué dans lequel elle annonçait que le consommateur devrait payer la hausse des charges infligées aux transporteurs. Cette intention est donc très rapidement traduite dans les faits.
