Roads, rail-road terminals and multimodal logistics platforms – works or mixed

This program funds projects focused on developing and modernizing critical transport infrastructure within the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T) Core Network. It aims to support sustainable, smart, and interconnected mobility across the European Union.

This program specifically supports works and, optionally, studies related to the development and upgrade of key transport infrastructure, particularly focusing on roads, rail-road terminals, and multimodal logistics platforms. The emphasis is on enhancing the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T) for improved connectivity and efficiency, while adhering to safety and environmental standards.

The program offers financial support in the form of action grants, providing substantial funding for strategic transport infrastructure projects. While specific project funding rates are not detailed, the overall budget indicates significant investment in the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T). Projects are expected to have a defined duration, typically spanning several years for comprehensive implementation.

Applicants and beneficiaries are subject to various conditions related to admissibility, eligibility, financial capacity, and operational implementation. Compliance with specific EU directives for road infrastructure safety and general accessibility for all operators are key requirements.

The application process involves preparing and submitting proposals via an online system, with a clear evaluation procedure based on defined award criteria. An indicative timeline is provided for evaluation and grant agreement finalization.

The Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) Transport program, including this call, is firmly rooted in a series of European Union regulations and directives. These legal instruments establish the framework for trans-European transport networks and govern the financial management of EU funds.
