Amendment 175 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 2 a (new)
(2a) Tackling the multi-modal competitive aspect between different transport modes is important to facilitate a substantial modal shift and reach the targets set in the Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy. In order to guarantee a fair level playing field between modes, framework conditions need to be levelled out and external costs should be internalised in pricing. In this regard, taxation and fees across the different modes, such as a tax on kerosene and lower track access charges, should reflect the priorities and contribute to the targets set in the Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy. This would incentivise people and companies to make transport choices in line with the EU’s sustainable transport vision. With an increased demand for rail capacity by both passenger and freight services, investments will also be needed to realise the capacity enhancing measures described above.
