Ireland’s domestic and international road haulage sector plays a vitally important role in our economy.
In line with the Programme for Government, the Department of Transport is working towards developing a ten-year strategy for the road haulage sector. The Government’s aim is to develop a strategy that will focus on generating efficiencies and improving standards, and helping the sector move to a low-carbon future.
The Department of Transport has launched a two-phase public consultation to seek views towards the development of a strategy for the haulage sector.
The first consultation document was published on 9 April with submissions due by 16 July. See details on how to make a submission here.
A copy of the Ten-year Strategy for the Haulage Sector First Consultation Document is available to download below.
