ABSTRACT
The European single market will be operational very soon, and the economy will gain a major advantage from this operation resulting in enormous savings of costs and time (Ceccini, 1988). European citizens have great hopes that it will promise them more freedom and wider possibilities in many fields. Integration of the 12 economies will inevitably have, as a consequence, an increased partitioning of production between the countries which will result in an increase of goods and a higher mobility of persons. Transport has to be considered as one of the key elements for the success of this operation in terms of economic and social development.
