A MODEL FOR MANAGING THE ENVIRONMENT BY COORDINATING THE FLOW OF GOODS IN THE REGIONS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION (BASED ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE NETHERLANDS)
Abstract
Due to economic and social benefits it provides, transport is a key sector on which development is based. However, adverse effects of transport in terms of the environment, economy, and society ought to be minimised. The European Commission has developed standard indicators to evaluate negative effects of transport and its sustainable development in Union countries. This paper presents these indicators and provides their synthetic analysis. The indicators reveal that several countries (e.g. the Netherlands) develop their transport more sustainably compared to other countries. The paper is an attempt to confirm the hypothesis that ?improving sustainable development indicators of transport is associated with the implementation of Transport Green Papers of 2007, the Transport White Paper of 2011, Mobility White Paper of 2015 and further recommendations [1], including the guidelines for the implementation of intelligent transportation systems (ITS)?. The objective of the paper was to indicate those EU countries that implement ITS to the greatest extent (thus improving sustainable development indicators of transport by implementing ITS) and to present ITS solutions implemented in such countries.
