Because current EU passenger rights legislations, which regulate each mode of transport separately, cannot be applied effectively in the context of multimodal passenger transport, the European Commission wants to examine options to better protect passengers in the EU when using multimodal transport. With this aim, it has launched an open public consultation to seek the opinion of the general public about key elements of the impact assessment: problems encountered when combining different modes of transport for the same journey; options to be assessed, and the likely impacts of each option.
The consultation will last 12 weeks and questionnaires can be returned by 25 May 2017 at the latest. All citizens and organisations are welcome to participate in this consultation. Contributions may be submitted in any official language of the EU.
