The Commission suggests examination of measures in the following fields: - standards . setting strict environmental standards for the various modes of transport as well as for water, air and soil - and ensuring compliance; - planning . making optimum use of existing modes of transport and making those modes that are less destructive of the environment more competitive; . developing the kind of infrastructure that will permit the operation of modes of transport that provide an alternative to road transport , and promoting public urba ...[+++]n and inter-urban transport; - safety . safety in the carriage of dangerous goods; - taxation .taking external costs into account; - economic and tax incentives .encouraging less polluting means of transport; - research . stimulating research aimed at developing 'clean' vehicles and fuels and at traffic management; - information . informing users to make them aware of the consequences their individual choices have for the environment.
