The European Commissioner for Transport, Siim Kallas, has not given his approval for cross-border ecocombi tests."Cross-border transport with longer and sometimes heavier road combinations is not authorised, by virtue of the Directive on weights and dimensions in road transport". This was the response of European Transport Commissioner Siim Kallas to the German Green MEPMichael Cramer, who had quizzed the Commissioner about the cross-border tests with 25.25-m road combinations between Hamburg and Odense (Denmark).
However, no measures would be implemented to prohibit these tests, he added, provided no Member States objected to them.
