European road-freight carriers will find it easier to get EU funding for projects to increase their efficiency and reduce the environmental impact of their operations following the administrative streamlining of the Marco Polo programme (6), which promotes the shift of road freight from congested roads to more sustainable modes — short-sea shipping, rail or inland waterways.
Zaradi upravne posodobitve programa Marco Polo (6), ki spodbuja preusmerjanje prevoza blaga s preobremenjenih cest k bolj trajnostnim načinom, kot so prevozi po morju na kratkih razdaljah, železnica ali celinske plovne poti, bodo evropski cestni prevozniki lažje pridobili sredstva EU za povečanje učinkovitosti svojih dejavnosti in zmanjšanje negativnih vplivov na okolje.

MEET THE WINNER OF THE 2009 SINGLE MARKET AWARD: AURORA DE FREITAS
SPOZNAJTE PREJEMNICO NAGRADE ENOTNEGA TRGA 2009, AURORO DE FREITAS
The end of 2009 was the deadline for implementation of the services directive in all Member States, to help realise the full potential of the largest sector of the European economy — and the one where the great majority of new jobs are created by opening up crossborder opportunities.
Konec leta 2009 je bil rok za izvedbo direktive o storitvah v vseh državah članicah. Cilj direktive je bil čim bolj izkoristiti možnosti največjega sektorja v evropskem gospodarstvu, v katerem se največ novih delovnih mest odpre s čezmejnih sodelovanjem.
The Commission insisted at the Competitiveness Council in September that the reform agenda foreseen by the directive had become even more pressing in the economic downturn.
Na septembrskem Svetu za konkurenčnost je Komisija poudarila, da je program reform, ki ga zajema ta direktiva, postal zaradi gospodarske recesije še nujnejši.
Implementation of the directive should therefore be seen, it underlined, as a cornerstone of the structural reforms that are necessary to put the EU economy back on the track of recovery.
Izvedba direktive naj bi zato bila temeljni kamen strukturnih reform, ki so potrebne za ponovno oživitev evropskega gospodarstva.
During the year, preparatory seminars and conferences were organised in the European Parliament and by the Commission.

At the same, the Commission remained vigilant against abuse, opening investigations into schemes that, for instance, seemed to favour large energy consumers.
Komisija je hkrati pozorno spremljala morebitne zlorabe in začela preiskave shem, ki naj bi na primer dajale prednost velikim porabnikom energije.
It also stepped up its efforts to remove obstacles to market integration and competition — and moved to ensure non-discriminatory access to gas networks or to prevent distortive effects of regulated prices.
