Road transport and the Ukraine crisis
The current war in Ukraine has shown again the vulnerability of professional truck, bus and coach drivers in times of crisis, especially at borders. Millions of ordinary citizens are also affected by the crisis. The entire road transport sector is working hard to support them.
IRU’s focus covers three areas: delivering humanitarian support by bus, coach and truck for refugees; supporting stranded drivers who have been caught up in the war; and keeping vital goods moving.
