In a joint letter addressed to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Commissioner for Sustainable Transport and Tourism Apostolos Tzitzikostas, IRU, ACEA and T&E – representing road transport operators, vehicle manufacturers and civil society – call for urgent action to prevent a funding gap following the exhaustion of the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Facility (AFIF).
