International Black Sea Transport Forum 2015

MEETING HUB FOR PROFESSIONALS OF TRANSPORT INDUSTRY

 Favorable geographical position of Ukraine at the crossway of main transit routes between Europe and Asia, availability of ice-free Black Sea ports, branched out network of railways and roads precondition an increase of volumes of cargo transit on the north-south and west-east directions as well as further integration of Ukraine into transportation routes within the range «Europe-Asia» that is set as a major objective upon signing the Association Agreement with the EU. Compliance with the roadmap articulated for Ukraine will assist to attract foreign investments in the industry. Implementation of European legislation with unified technical procedures, information systems, customs operations will accelerate and simplify transit traffic procedure across our territory.

These issues will be raised at the 18th international conference «Transport Service Market in Ukraine in the context of integration into the European and global transport systems» that will be held 20-21 October 2015 in Odessa within the framework of the International Black Sea Transport Forum.
