Commission Work Programme 2007
confirms Green Paper on urban transport
On 24 October 2006 the European Commission adopted
its Legislative and Work Programme for 2007. One of the twenty-one so called "strategic initiatives" is the publication of
a Green Paper on urban transport. According to the Work Programme the Green Paper will assess the benefits that would result
from a European policy on urban transport. The Green Paper will also identify the problems/challenges, (possible) new actions
including ‘early actions’, (possible) responsibilities. It will propose actions through which the EU can add value and it will
include a list of questions for further consultation.
