Abstract
The study in this report is focused on 12 economies in the North European and Baltic area. All are now members of the EU. In addition to drawing conclusions and providing recommendations, the work in this report can be divided into three main elements. The first is to provide a mapping of the structure of freight flows to and from Ireland, to provide projections of changes in Ireland’s trade with other countries in the study area, and to examine the determinants of this structure. The second is to examine the cost variables in relation to this structure and to estimate the potential for imminent developments to affect this structure. The third is to examine the nature of the logistics sector in Europe and to provide indications of the potential response of this sector to changes in the policy and economic environment.
