HE UK Parliamentary Transport Committee has called on industry to comment on its review of potential effects on freight transport operations and infrastructure as ahead of the UK's exit from the European Union.
This input is expected to include details about measures being taken by freight companies, trade associations and shippers as the British government makes Brexit preparations, reported American Shipper.
The investigation also will consider the freight transportation industry's suggestions for specific infrastructure investments to support the needs of cargo movement.
In addition, the Transport Committee is seeking the industry's proposals for meeting post-Brexit requirements for licensing, regulation and training of operators and workers in the freight sector.
"Whilst we've heard a lot about customs arrangements, border controls, tariffs and trade deals, we haven't heard enough about transport infrastructure, policy and regulation implications affecting freight operators and their customers," said British International Freight Association (BIFA) director general Robert Keen.
"The Transport Committee inquiry is offering freight operators and their diverse customers the opportunity to specify their needs in regards to transport infrastructure," he said.
