Empowering Truck Drivers - Revolutionizing European Logistics
Pays one consortium up to EUR 600,000 to design, build and launch a free app that lets truckers rate and share information on points of interest across their routes.
Award criteria, scoring and thresholds are set out in section 9 of the call document. The Commission frames the app as a way to shift market dynamics toward higher-quality points of interest: reputational pressure from driver ratings is meant to push operators of low-rated stops to upgrade facilities and service quality, while helping address driver shortages linked to poor working conditions. App…
The Commission wants a consortium to build a reliable, community-driven app that gives truck drivers advance, crowd-sourced information — including ratings and comments — on service quality at points of interest along their routes. The goal is to close an information gap in the market so drivers and transport managers can choose better rest stops and services, and to push operators of low-rated locations to improve.
