CTS Protests Fuel Costs, Works with Sicilian Region to Restart Agricultural Loads
What happened
The Sicilian Transporters Committee is protesting high fuel costs while collaborating with the Sicilian Region to restart loads in the fruit and vegetable sector. As an emergency measure, initial travel is restricted to land transport through the Strait of Messina. The restart of loads is dependent on the definitive signature of a memorandum of understanding regarding intermodal logistics.

Why it matters
The stoppage is affecting the island’s agricultural sector, which is facing a dramatic crisis. The delay prevents cold storage rooms from emptying, risking tons of product waste, particularly in the Italian grape sector.
