Position Paper: Made in EU - The Vision of the Public Transport Sector
This paper outlines the public transport sector’s position on the principle of European preference.
Summary
UITP supports a pragmatic “Made in EU” approach in public procurement to strengthen European industry and strategic autonomy, while avoiding extra burdens for public transport authorities and operators. The paper stresses that European preference rules must remain flexible and gradual so they do not slow down decarbonisation, innovation or the deployment of sustainable transport solutions.
