The objective of the secretariat was therefore to enhance the efficiency of transport operations so that transport promoted trade and development.

(b) Increase energy efficiency, including in the energy production and transformation, industrial, transport, household and agricultural sectors

Selected sample of major projects to improve the efficiency of transit transport

Trade routes to certain countries may be highly efficient in terms of transport costs and services but inefficient to and from other parts of the world.

(c) Increase energy efficiency in the energy production, transformation and distribution, industry, transport and household sectors

(i) Mr. Barry Cable, UNESCAP Measuring progress in establishing efficient transit transport systems

Encouraged by the relative ease with which goods can be transported by sea and its cost effectiveness, sea transport has become the choice for the continued violations of the arms embargo.

Efficiency improvements in production, transmission and distribution

Good quality transport service has been provided by the Transport Section.

22. There are two fundamental, yet closely interrelated approaches (underlining the apos systems apos approach to transport) to ensure improved efficiency of transport and transport markets.

In addition, 11 treaties relating to the environment, health, telecommunications and transport entered into force.

When dangerous goods are transported at elevated temperatures in either liquid or solid state, the shell shall be thermally insulated to meet this condition.

This requires making transport technologies more clean and efficient, and reducing the demand for personal motorized vehicle transport.

The magnitude of the burden of transportation costs varies depending on how successful countries have been in their efforts to improve transit transport efficiency.

25. While improvements in the functioning of transport systems are primarily seen as instrumental in promoting foreign trade, efficiency gains also have a more direct impact on the operating results of transport operators.

Also, the effective implementation of the Basic Multilateral Agreement on International Transport for Development of the Europe Caucasus Asia Corridor (TRACECA)3 has contributed to the fact that the level of transit traffic through this corridor in 2004 was 2.5 times that in 1999.

Meeting this demand in a sustainable manner will require drastically increasing the efficiency with which energy is produced, delivered and used.

III. Measures under way to improve the efficiency of transit transport in Central Asia

The African Development Bank Group promoted policies and strategies aimed at increasing the efficiency, productivity and capacity of African regional transport corridors that would boost international trade.

(vi) International Road Transport Union (IRU) TIR a Secure and Efficient Transit System

The globalization of trade would mean ever increasing demand for efficient and cost effective transport systems and freight services.

Indicators to measure progress in establishing efficient transit transport systems

This service is considered to be widely available, efficient and cost effective in these regions.

UITP is aware that developing countries have an urgent need for efficient public transport and is therefore interested in collaborating with other non governmental organizations in order to promote the local public transport industries on the international level.

In assessing the transport sector, the TEAM will have to divide the assessment into the different modes of transport (road, rail, air and sea)in relation to the different forms of transport (bulk, breakbulk, containerised).

(a) Transit transport policy orientation emphasizing the establishment of a market oriented commercial environment, competition between modes and transit corridors to ensure cost effectiveness of transit transport operations

He particularly welcomed the unanimous agreement by the experts that further progress in improving transit transport efficiency would significantly depend on continued efforts to consolidate a commercial transit transport policy environment which encouraged competition and cost effective transit transport operations and services.

Other specific measures to improve railway operational efficiency are also under way in different regions.

II. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN KEY AREAS OF TRANSIT TRANSPORT SYSTEMS

4.2.1.3 Certain substances are chemically unstable. They are accepted for transport only when the necessary steps have been taken to prevent their dangerous decomposition, transformation or polymerization during transport.

Then you can go even further, almost tripling efficiency with some operational improvements, double the big haulers' margins.

The initiative for such initial investments could come from transport service providers, such as ports, or also from shippers, who had an interest in more efficient transit corridors.

Other measures in this subsector focused on improving availability, efficiency and emission performance of public modes of transport, and included consideration of the integration of urban planning, transport and environmental policies, speed reductions, fuel economy ratings, rationalizing of urban and inter urban transport, education and awareness raising on transport issues, and regular vehicle inspection to improve fuel efficiency.

TP11 If the substance is transported in the molten state it shall be transported in an insulated tank which may be heated when necessary.

For substances handled under elevated temperature conditions the design temperature shall be not less than the maximum temperature of the substance during filling, discharge or transport.

Trade, vocational secondary and post secondary schools offering an education in the professions important for railway transport and maritime or inland shipping, as well as the maritime economy, are managed by the Minister of Transport and Maritime Economy

In particular, in accordance with the New Tax Code of Georgia, which came into force in 2005, the road tax fund was abolished with a view to reducing transit traffic costs for neighbouring landlocked States and attracting more transit traffic.

(b) Assist developing countries in sourcing and acquiring eco efficient technologies

Expressing mutual interest in the development of the Europe Caucasus Asia transport corridor for the improvement of the transport infrastructure within the Transport Corridor Europe Caucasus Asia (TRACECA) on the basis of the revival of the historic silk route,

(a) Lead the drive to achieving eco efficiency improving efficiency in material and energy use minimizing waste in production processes recycling solid wastes and waste water

2.2.2.1 (b) Delete are transported at a pressure not less than 280 kPa at 20 C, or as refrigerated liquids, and which .

The emphasis is on enhancing public awareness, improving energy efficiency on the demand side and better management of the transport sector.

The Government of Georgia committed to establishing an efficient transit transport system for its landlocked neighbours.
