Paving the way for EU enlargement : indicators of transport and environment integration : TERM 2002

This is the third indicator-based report developed under the transport and environment reporting mechanism (TERM). Previous reports (TERM 2000, TERM 2001) described the progress the EU is making towards the integration of environmental concerns in its transport policies. TERM 2002 now also includes the countries that have applied for membership to the EU - the accession countries - and compares the trends in this region with recent EU developments. This comparative analyses of the differences and similarities between the two regions will hopefully help the countries to learn from their respective experiences. TERM 2002 constitutes a first step towards gearing the accession countries fully into the TERM information system.
