Description

On behalf of the IRU, the Hague Consulting Group undertook an investigation of the economic impacts of avoidable obstructions to the free movement of road freight and coach operations: so-called 'barriers' to transport. Assessments of the costs of these barriers or 'invisibles' have been calculated and are compared with the total cost of road transport to the national economy.
