Abstract

Although, in the history of the European Community, the period 1958 to 1985 will not be remembered for remarkable achievement as far as the freedom to provide transport services is concerned, the nineties have redressed the balance, even though a complete Common Transport Policy (CTP) has not yet been achieved. This paper seeks to summarise the current status of the CTP and to focus on two longstanding problems. These problems are the proposals to finance, and then maintain, transport infrastructures and the debate on the Community’s external competence in the field of transport, particularly sea and air transport. However, an appreciation of what has been achieved in the nineties cannot be done without recalling briefly some of the historical background.
