"I voted in favour because the transport sector is of major importance for the development of the European Union, its regions and its towns, and also for European citizens in that it provides jobs for many Europeans and serves the completion of the European internal market. Transport can make a significant contribution to the Europe 2020 strategy, particularly with regard to employment, sustainable economic growth, research, energy, innovation and the environment. I agree with the rapporteur’s view that the Member States underestimate the European added value of transport policy and obstruct it by implementing directives and projects incorrectly or late. In times of economic and financial crisis, investment in TEN-T projects is not sufficiently promoted. The transport networks of the new and old Member States should be effectively linked up, and disparities between the levels of infrastructure development in the EU Member States should be eliminated in order to establish a Single European Transport Area. Europe needs to create a competitive and resource efficient transport system."@en1
