In the letter received from the Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges of Türkiye (TOBB), it is stated that the international road transport sector, through which 30 percent of our country's exports in value terms are carried out, faces obstacles abroad such as insufficient transit permit quotas, impositions of mode and route, and transit fees.



The letter further states that waiting times and delays caused by vehicle congestion at Kapıkule, the most important exit point for our export transport to Europe, lead to time losses and cost increases in our transport and foreign trade, weaken the international competitiveness of our export products, and that, therefore, alternative routes and itineraries to be used in road transport will gain importance with each passing day.

In this context, it is anticipated that the Karasu-Constanța (Romania) Ro-Ro line, which started operating on 03.02.2021, and the Alsancak-Tarragona (Spain) Ro-Ro line, whose services started on 07.02.2021, will offer important alternative solutions to the problems experienced in road transport. It is stated that, in this way, a decrease is expected in the difficulties experienced at certain periods, particularly in our exports to Europe.

Submitted for the information of our members.
