  1. A: Longer Heavier Vehicles Q: Environmental costs (minimise) Emissions, Pollution, Waste ... Q: Track costs (balance) Pavement design / axle loads, tyre scrub ... Infrastructure: Bridge design / imposed load, Curves / turning circle ... Q: Economics (maximise) Efficiency; Reliability; ... Solution - Performance Based Standards (optimise) Longer semi-trailers More efficient combinations

  2. Longer semi-trailers - background 1960 - Competitive systems: ISO Series 1 vs. palletised cargo Political:Operational:Technical bias (geographical/modal/economic) 1970 - Paradigm shift from ‘space’ to handling considerations Converging gateways : outer (handling/transport), inner (pallets) 1980 - ISO regulatory change - pallet compatible containers 2000 - EU new generation of ‘swap bodies’ Institutional asymmetries & UNCTAD/ISO rivalry? 2010/15 - Next Generation (EU or Worldwide?) EU road dominant : Import/Export ISO x2 x3 : Combined Transport? OSS - Open Source Software

  3. CEN - Intermodal & Interoperable Workshop Optimum (5x1.2) a) 6.25m & 12.5m? Economic 20’ b) 8.3m & 16.6m? ? Highways 7.82m “Second best” C745 | A1360 not modular!

IRU - conclusions • Fewer political restrictions on lorry traffic • Optimal exploitation of existing infrastructure • More environmetaly friendly innovations Tractor semi-trailer BIC Study team (UIRR ..) - recommendations Refuse requests for greater road vehicle dimensions “If such pressures render successful, all those who organise common European standards based on current legislation will be dis-encouraged!” Project: ETU/B2-704-507.15476 72002
