ESTA has written to Turkish member AND – the Turkish Heavy Transport Association – in support of AND’s attempts to persuade the Turkish authorities to reform the country’s heavy transport regulations. AND hopes that Turkey will adopt similar regulations to those currently in force in Germany and the Netherlands.
In his letter of support, ESTA Director Ton Klijn said that if the Turkish authorities did agree to the reforms, their national heavy transport industry would be safer and more efficient as a result, and the industry would also reduce its environmental footprint.
