Recital 6 a (new)
(6a) Member States entering into agreements that allow longer and heavier vehicles to be used in cross-border transport should ensure that the 2030 and 2050 goals regarding the targets of 30% and 50%8a respectively are not burdensome to the economy and acknowledge that, long-haul road freight is economically positive. It should be proven, documented and reported to the Commission for its approval that the present and future role of longer and heavier vehicles is complementing rather than competing with rail and waterborne transport. ___________ 8a OJ C 168 E, 14.6.2013, p. 72.
