June 2006 a communication on freight transport logistics (Reported on earlier in LogOnBaltic Newsletter 1\/2006). The communication highlights the need for an overall approach to the improvement of transport logistics and rehearses the issues in preparation for an action plan in 2007 to promote such logistics. Transport logistics makes it possible to optimise flows of goods. Logistics is thus an essential tool for meeting the challenges of growing mobility and competitiveness. It is also a means of reducing the adverse effects of mobility, such as pollution, congestion and energy dependence.<\/p>\n<p>The Communication is available on <a href=\"http:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/transport\/logistics\/index_en.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> http:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/transport\/logistics\/index_en.htm<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#section1\">Back to top<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Events News services European Union View pictures of St. Petersburg conference LogOn Baltic final conference (TACIS component): Making St. Petersburg Russia\u2019s Logistics Arch of Triumph Conference was held at the Finnish Consulate General in St. Petersburg on 28th November 2008. &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blogit.utu.fi\/logonbaltic\/news\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2129,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1091","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogit.utu.fi\/logonbaltic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1091","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogit.utu.fi\/logonbaltic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogit.utu.fi\/logonbaltic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogit.utu.fi\/logonbaltic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2129"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogit.utu.fi\/logonbaltic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1091"}],"version-history":[{"count":24,"href":"https:\/\/blogit.utu.fi\/logonbaltic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1091\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1424,"href":"https:\/\/blogit.utu.fi\/logonbaltic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1091\/revisions\/1424"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogit.utu.fi\/logonbaltic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1091"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
