TRAN

Amendment 32 #
Council position – amending act Recital 6 a (new) (6a) In order to avoid distorting competition in the road freight sector, mark-ups for pollution and congestion costs may be introduced by the Member States provided that existing domestic taxation in this sector – including vehicle ownership and/or traffic taxes, along with fuel taxes – is not reduced in such a way as to subsidise national operators. Fulfilment of this requirement must be demonstrated when the mark-up for external costs is introduced, and the Commission must carry out a prior check on, and subsequently monitor, compliance with the requirement.
Amendment 34 #
Council position – amending act Recital 13 a (13a) The increased cost of road freight resulting from external-cost charges for pollution and congestion must, along the relevant road links, be coupled with alternatives in terms of infrastructure, modal solutions and the provision of services by operators under access and service conditions based in particular on competition and market comparisons. In accordance with the implementing principles for inter-modal, intra-modal and co-modal shifts of traffic flows, Member States intending to introduce mark-ups for pollution and congestion costs must therefore show that these requirements are being met, including in terms of programming commitments to be implemented within a predetermined timeframe.
Amendment 43 #
Council position – amending act Article 1 – point 1 a (new) Directive 1999/62/EC Article 6 – paragraph 4 a (new) (1a) In Article 6, the following paragraph shall be added : ‘(4a) The introduction and application of mark-ups under Article 7b(2) shall not be coupled with reductions in vehicle and fuel taxes. The Commission shall monitor the proper implementation of this paragraph.’
Amendment 47 #
Council position – amending act Article 1 – point 2 Directive 1999/62/EC Article 7 c – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 2 a (new) The introduction of external-cost charges is dependent on the availability of modal alternatives to the relevant section of road and of competitive services thereon. The Commission shall ensure that the Member States fulfil this requirement within a reasonable timeframe.

Proposal for a regulation Recital 13 (13) Manufacturers should have flexibility to decide how to meet their targets under this Regulation and should be allowed to average emissions over their new vehicle fleet rather than having to respect CO2 targets for each individual vehicle.

On the basis of such a review and its impact assessment, which includes an overall assessment of the impact on the car industry and its dependent industries, the Commission shall, if appropriate, make a proposal to amend this Regulation in a way which is as neutral as possible from the point of view of competition, and which is socially equitable and sustainable. The European Commission shall make a proposal to the European Parliament and European Council on those measures, designed to amend essential elements of this Regulation.

2009/2096(INI) A sustainable future for transport
2009/11/12
ENVI
5 amendments...
Amendment 7 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 2 2. Draws attention to the predicted trend towards an increasing degree of urbanisation of our society, hence the increasing importance of spatial planning and attractive and efficient mass transport systems that are geared to the new technologies and are able to compete with private vehicles in terms of cost, method and journey time, especially with regard to urban transport,
Amendment 8 #
Draft opinion Paragraphs 2 a (new) and 2 b (new) 2a. Highlights the importance of checking that the maximum speed limit of 50 km/h is strictly complied with in urban areas; as various studies and research have shown, this has a dual impact: firstly, it reduces pollutant emissions and secondly, the number of accidents and road deaths which are known to affect a substantial percentage of the population in densely inhabited areas; 2b. Highlights the need to institutionalise the concept of environmentally friendly driving, or eco-driving, and to make it compulsory when training young drivers, since, by taking simple measures when driving, fuel consumption can demonstrably be reduced by up to 30%, thereby reducing air pollution from CO2, unburned hydrocarbons (UHC) and fine dust;
Amendment 11 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 3 3. Considers compliance with air quality norms as laid down in EU legislation as crucial given the increase in respiratory, cardiovascular and other diseases related to air pollution, mainly resulting from transport.
Amendment 14 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 4 a (new) 4a. Calls for, as regards the improvement of quality of life, transport to be adapted to persons with reduced mobility, who have the inalienable right, enshrined in Article 9 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, of access to all forms of transport. This is a cornerstone of non-discrimination in the free movement of persons, which also offers economic, cultural and tourism-related benefits.
Amendment 16 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 5 5. Recognises the fact that road transport has brought down considerably its emissions of particulate matter (PM 10), acidifying substances and ozone precursors, but is still worried about its level of nitrogen oxides and of fine particulates (Term report 2008, fig. 5.1) . Is however particularly disappointed about its CO2 emissions, which in the period from 1990 - 2006 increased by 28 %, compared to a reduction of 3 % in the other sectors.

Amendment 214 #
Proposal for a decision Annex – Factsheet 6 – title Urban Mobility, smart and sustainable development.
Amendment 215 #
Proposal for a decision Annex – Factsheet 6 – part 1 – paragraph 1 The theme of smart, green and integrated transport has been identified as one of the major societal challenges which will be addressed within the framework of Horizon 2020. The 2011 Transport White Paper further reinforces the importance of taking action in this domain during the next decade. Urban mobility is a particularly challenging task. It should be addressed through a truly integrated and holistic approach, taking explicitly into account the interaction with the other topics in a spatial context. It addresses a number of topics such as transport (including new mobility concepts, transport organisation, logistics, transport systems safety and security), environmental issues (reduction of greenhouse gases, air pollution and noise) urban planning, urban and natural landscape (new concepts for bringing work and living closer together), cultural heritage and has an important impact both at the economic and social levels (new business creation, employment, social inclusion, housing and location strategies). The overarching aim is to improve the quality of life of European citizens who – in increasing numbers – live in large urban conglomerations where much of Europe's economic performance is generated.13
Amendment 217 #
Proposal for a decision Annex – Factsheet 6 – part 2 – paragraph 1 The key objective of a KIC on urban mobility and smart and sustainable development will be to ensure a greener, more inclusive, safer and smarter urban mobility system.
Amendment 218 #
Proposal for a decision Annex – Factsheet 6 – part 2 – paragraph 2 As already outlined above, the theme is highly relevant from a societal and public policy point of view. It also is highly relevant from a socio-economic perspective since it involves important economic sectors in GDP and employment terms, such as the automotive or the construction sectors. Urban mobility is, in addition, linked with environmental protection strategies and fully embedded in policies of social inclusion, location, housing
Amendment 220 #
Proposal for a decision Annex – Factsheet 6 – part 2 – paragraph 3 A KIC on urban mobility and smart and sustainable development is both in line with the priorities defined in Horizon 2020 and with Europe 2020 strategy objectives of achieving a smarter, more sustainable, low carbon and inclusive urban development. A KIC in this thematic area could contribute to each of Europe 2020 strategy objectives by, for example, the promotion of eco-efficient solutions, intelligent ICT schemes for traffic management, and provision of more efficient and affordable transport services.

Proposal for a decision Annex 1 – section 3 – point 3 – point 3.1 – point 3.1.3 – paragraph 1 Urban areas are one of the largest consumers of energy in the Union and emit a correspondingly large share of greenhouse gases, while generating a substantial amount of air pollutants. In that context, there is a need of promoting integrated systemic urban development strategies that take into account: energy efficiency, accessibility, green spaces, adaptation of habitats and social integration. At the same time, urban areas are affected by decreasing air quality and climate change and have to develop their own mitigation and adaptation strategies. Finding innovative energy solutions (energy efficiency, electricity and heating and cooling supply systems), integrated with transport, waste and water treatment as well as ICT solutions for the urban environment are therefore crucial in the transformation towards a low carbon society. Targeted initiatives in support to the convergence of industrial value chains of the energy, transport and ICT sector for smart urban applications need to be envisaged. At the same time, new technological, organisational, planning and business models need to be developed and tested at full scale according to the needs and means of cities and communities. Research is also needed to understand the social, economic and cultural issues that are involved in this transformation.

2011/0409(COD) Sound level of motor vehicles
2012/06/13
ENVI
14 amendments...
Amendment 25 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 1 (1) The internal market comprises an area without internal frontiers in which the free movement of goods, persons, services and capital must be ensured. To that end a comprehensive Union type-approval system for motor vehicles is in place. The technical requirements for the type- approval of motor vehicles and their exhaust systems with regard to permissible sound levels should be harmonised to avoid the adoption of requirements that differ from one Member State to another and to ensure the proper functioning of the internal market while, at the same time, providing for a high level of environmental protection and public safety. The Commission should also undertake an impact assessment regarding the labelling conditions applicable to air and noise pollution levels. This impact assessment should take into consideration the different types of vehicles covered by this Regulation (including electric vehicles) as well as the effect that such labelling could have on the car industry. In fact, while such labelling could be considered a useful tool for raising awareness among consumers and protecting their rights as regards transparency prior to the purchase of a vehicle, it could seriously and adversely affect the car industry on cost grounds. The impact assessment should therefore evaluate the cost- effectiveness of this tool.
Amendment 28 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 6 (6) This Regulation should therefore introduce a different method in relation to the compulsory one of Directive 70/157/EEC. That method should be based on the method published by the UNECE Working Party on Noise (GRB) in 2007 which incorporated a 2007 version of the standard ISO 362. The results of monitoring of both the old and the new test methods were submitted to the Commission. Furthermore, in order to overcome the shortcomings inherent in the previous test method, the Commission should, within 24 months of the entry into force of this Regulation, submit an impact assessment to the European Parliament and to the Council on the effective contribution of tyre rolling equipment in reducing the noise level of vehicles, focussing on the road surface impact, and the research needs in this specific field, in view of adopting a new European test method which also takes into account road surface behaviour.
Amendment 32 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 8 (8) This Regulation should also further reduce noise limits. It should take account of Regulation (EC) No 661/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 July 2009 concerning type-approval requirements for the general safety of motor vehicles, their trailers and systems, components and separate technical units intended therefor , which introduced new stricter noise requirements for motor vehicle tyres and which underlined the need for a coherent and comprehensive approach to addressing the problem of road noise, including taking into account the contribution of "silent" road surfaces and noise reducing materials in mitigating the road traffic sound level. This horizontal approach will more efficiently reduce the overall road traffic noise compared to a sectoral and vertical approach. Studies highlighting the annoyance and health effects from road traffic noise, and the associated costs and benefits should also be heeded.
Amendment 33 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 8a (new) (8a) The Commission should publish "silent" road guidelines, addressed to road authorities in order to provide them with a useful tool to comply with requirements for more sustainable road infrastructure.
Amendment 41 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 10 (10) The environmental benefits expected from hybrid electric and pure electric road transport vehicles have resulted in a substantial reduction of the noise emitted by such vehicles. This has resulted in the removal of an important source of audible signal that is used by blind and low vision pedestrians and cyclists, amongst other road users, to become aware of the approach, presence or departure of these vehicles. For that purpose, industry is developing acoustic systems to compensate for this lack of audible signal in electric and hybrid electric vehicles. The performance of approaching vehicle audible systems fitted to vehicles should be harmonised. The fitting of such systems should however, remain an option at the discretion of vehicle manufacturers. The adequate audibility of electric cars should be assured by a minimum noise level - not only with regard to public health and road safety but also with respect to particularly vulnerable groups such as pedestrians and people with disabilities.

Amendment 284 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 21 a (new) 21a. Notes that in the EU analysis of options to reduce greenhouse gas emission, the case is not how to create more ‘green jobs’ by subsidising non- efficient (after carbon pricing is taken into consideration) installations for renewables but how to create ‘defendable jobs’ which will stand the competition test posed by the emerging global players; Where the relevant equipment for some renewable sources is increasingly manufactured in China and India, Europe should now invest more in energy efficiency which will strengthen local economies by supporting local jobs that cannot leak to third countries with lower cost of production
Amendment 285 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 21 a (new) 21a. Concurs with the European Commission’s Roadmap for a low carbon economy by 2050 where it states that ‘the creation and preservation of jobs will depend on the EU's ability to lead in terms of the development of new low carbon technologies through increased education, training, programmes to foster acceptability of new technologies, R&D and entrepreneurship, as well as favourable economic framework conditions for investments’
Amendment 286 #
