Abstract

As one of three common policies, transport has been part of the European integration project since the Treaty of Rome in 1957. Transport was originally perceived as a field that had to be treated differently due to its special aspects. Since then, transport markets have been opened and exposed to liberalisation and competition just like any other field covered by the EEA Agreement. This evolution has come about through the adoption of secondary legislation, gradually making the old lex specialis regime less relevant. This legislative evolution has also added new areas to the European transport policy, such as environmental protection, climate change, fair working conditions and other social protection measures. With the completion of the single European transport market within reach, such traditionally flanking areas will probably be ever more relevant for the future regulation of transport in the EEA.
