The e-Freight project is aimed at supporting , from a transport perspective, the three pillars of European Policy namely:  

Strengthening of the internal market and competitiveness; Improving regulation to create a more dynamic business environment; Promoting sustainable development.


Specifically e-Freight will contribute to the goals of the Freight transport Logistics Action Plan (Oct 2007), and ITS Action Plan (Oct 2008) pertaining to the development of:      

     1.  A standard framework for freight information exchange 
           covering all transport modes and all stakeholders. 
     2.  A European Single Transport Document for carriage of 
           goods with all the necessary legislative support, 
           irrespective of mode. 
     3.  A Single Window (single access point) for administrative  
           procedures in all modes. 
     4.  Simple, harmonised border crossings procedures for all  
           modes of transport for all EU member states. 
      5.  Simple procedures and the necessary infrastructure for 
           establishing secure and efficient transport corridors  
           between Europe, USA, and Asia.
