An increase of 2,5 % of the GDP a year during 15 years, will engender a total increase of 45% goods volume. Will be bigger and better filled vehicles; the traffic concentrations will take place on the main axes of the road network. Source : EMS July 10 Transport Industry Market 67
273. Perspective : The EMS or the 25,25m The continuous increase of transporting of goods, the road transport hegemony and the overloading of main highways incite the road transport professionals TRM have to think about new means of transportation. The EMS (European Modular System) or the very heavy truck is a combination of existing vehicles which would allow according to the professionals to optimize the transport capacity and opens new perspectives to an increasing demand. Sweden and Norway adopted the EMS, Netherlands, Germany and Belgium start up experiments, France soon should follow them. THE EMS meets a strong opposition by the ecological associations which would desire that the state invest its energy in the railroad freight. July 10 Transport Industry Market 68 (FNTR)
274. Perspective: future of the railwayfreight Decline of national railway freight companies (25 % of the volume transported in railroad freight in December 2008). The economic crisis and the competition of the private operators are going to increase the lacks of the railroad freight which amounted in 2008 to 350 million euro and could reach 600 million euro in 2009. In only 3 years (2006 - 2009) the private operators (Veolia, EuroCargoRail, Rail Colas, B-Cargo, Eurodoor 2, CFL-Cargo, VFLI) acquired 12 % of market shares. July 10 Transport Industry Market 69
