The 2011 "White Paper": A vision for the European
transport system of 2050 and a policy agenda for 2020
The overall objectives:
Reducing CO2 emissions from transport by 60 % by
2050 while meeting increasing mobility needs
Establishing a Single European Transport Area
Promoting measures in four areas:
Internal Market
Infrastructure
Innovation
International dimension


A tight carbon budget for the transport sector
.
In October 2009, the European
Council showed support for the
objective of reducing GHG
emissions in the EU by 80 to 95%
by 2050 compared to 1990 levels.
This corresponds to - 60% CO2
emissions in transport.

Transport accounts for about one
fourth of GHG emissions: 60%
comes from passenger transport,
one quarter is urban, less than one
quarter is inter-continental and over
half is medium-distance

Mediterranean Corridor – Core TEN-T

Completion of the internal market – Single
European Transport Area

..
Eliminate all residual barriers between modes and
national systems
Establish a truly internal market for rail freight
services. 4th railway package
Pursue the gradual elimination of remaining
restrictions on cabotage in road transport while
strengthening law enforcement
Weights and dimensions for trucks
Review European ports policy
Blue Belt for short sea shipping
Internalise external costs

Planning and funding of transport infrastructure

TEN-T Guidelines. A dual layer approach for transport
infrastructure: core and comprehensive network
A framework to use coherently money in TEN-T,
cohesion and structural funds
Corridors’ approach carrying freight and passengers
with high efficiency and low emissions, making better
use of existing infrastructure, completing missing links,
alleviating bottlenecks and using more multimodal
transport services supported by advanced information
and communication technologies.

Key priorities:
• Interconnect modes of transport:
– Railways corridors to Core Ports
– High speed lines to airports.
– Multimodal logistic platforms with rail
– Cutting the red tape and ensuring information
flows
• Deploy homogeneous standards (UIC Gauge, B1
loading gauge ("Galibo de carga"), 750-m trains,
electrification, ERTMS)
• Joint management, EU Coordination

Finding the money …
500 billion Euros for the completion of the core
network until 2030 – 50% (250) billion Euros until
2020
Member States and other public and private sources
A share of Cohesion Policy (No more Cohesion Fund
for Spain)
New opportunity: 13.2 (+10) b€ Connecting Europe
Facility (CEF)
EIB loans and Financial engineering tools (guarantee
funds, project bonds)

The TEN-T Corridors
Atlantic and Mediterranean
(ERTSM Corridor D)
9
The corridors: TEN Core, rail freight, ERTMS
The core network corridors (CNC) are tools to facilitate the
coordinated implementation of the core network. They are
multimodal.
A work plan for each corridor will be drawn up; a consultative
Corridor Forum representing all modes, Member States,
regions will be established.
The service oriented Rail Freight corridors set up by
Regulation 913/2010 and the ERTMS corridors will be kept
and merged as well as their existing structures.
The Mediterranean corridor will integrate rail freight corridor 6
and ERTMS corridor D.
Important missing links are the cross-border "Lyon-Turin",
Montpellier-Perpignan,
Tarragona-Vandellós
and
interoperability of the line towards Valencia…Cartagena
together with the multimodal connection with the ports

Urban mobility: from the 2009 action plan to the
2013 mobility package
.
.
.
Urban mobility package (2nd half 2013)
•
Incorporate urban logistics and freight transport in
local policies and Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans
•
Zero-emission urban logistics in major urban centres
by 2030
•
Establishing a framework for urban road user
charging and access restriction zones
Improve the links between long-distance, inter-urban
and urban freight transport (TEN-T)
Interoperable and multimodal information and
ticketing
Better management and monitoring of transport flows
