SAFETY TRUCKS' STOPS * Europe - Improving European truck parking
Brussels,Belgium -HGV UK -September 9, 2010: -- The European Commission and the Belgian presidency will jointly hold a conference in Brussels on ‘Improving European Truck Parking’ at the end of October... This event offers the opportunity to showcase various initiatives in Member States and unveil the results of the European pilot project LABEL to provide truckers with reliable information about the security and comfort levels of available parking areas... Safe and secure rest areas are essential to truck drivers who must under the EU regulation for driving times and for road safety reasons take regular breaks... However, the freight transport industry and the social partners have flagged up both the lack of adequate parking facilities and the problem of criminals targeting their trucks at parking areas... During its presidency, Belgium wishes to emphasise the need for continued efforts of Member States to provide truck drivers with safe and secure rest areas...
