Abstract
This study investigated European Union dangerous goods transportation regulations and their affects on Turkey’s export and import activities in respect to the IMDG, International Maritime Dangerous Goods transportation regulations. Considering Turkey’s trade activities in global area, sea transportation is the most important transportation mode which is followed by road transportation. Dangerous goods trade between European Union countries and Turkey, especially in the multimodal transportation; there are two important key regulations at once, IMDG, ADR, European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by road. International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code is a regulation of dangerous goods transportation which aims safe transportation through protecting environment. ADR regulates dangerous goods transportation by road. In addition to IMDG and ADR codes there are different regulations for other modes such as railway and inland waterways. ADN is the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Inland Waterways. RID are the Regulations concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Rail. All of these regulations have common purposes but related with different types of transportation modes. Countries; have dangerous cargo transportation to European Union like Turkey have to follow ADR and IMDG codes during multimodal transportation process. Besides using two different regulations in same time, in some cases dangerous cargo transporter needs to follow transit countries regulations. Dangerous cargo transportation is already risky and required key importance to not harm people or environment. Following different regulations in same transportation process makes dangerous cargo transportation more complicated. In this study we will try to examine how we reduce the barriers against dangerous cargo transportation from Turkey to European Union countries with try to simplify regulations between transportation modes and reducing differences about basic issues like dangerous cargo training process, infrastructure and transportation costs between European countries and Turkey to catch EU transportation standards.
