White Paper 2011: Transport 2050
. White Paper 2001 modal shift
. Revision 2006 co-modality
. White Paper 2011 modal integration
“Roadmap to a Single European Transport Area –towards a competitive and resource efficient transport system”(COM (2011) 144 final del 28.3.2011)
In line with the Europe 2020 strategy:
- support economic progress and improve competitiveness,- break the dependance of the transport system from oil,- need less and cleaner energy,- make better use of infrastructure,- have less impact on the environment,- however without restricting mobility!

General objectives:
- develop and apply new, sustainable fuels and propulsion systems.
- optimize logistic chains,use the most energy efficient modes of transport.
- increase the efficiency of transport and infrastructure use,(innovative information systems and market based incentives).
Main Objectives of the White Paper
Specific objectives:
- reduce transport emissions by 60 %
- elimiate coventional fuelled vehicles from cities (2030: 50 %);
- use 40 % low carbon aviation fuel;
- reduce maritime transport emissions by 40 %;achieve a modal share of 50 % (2030: 30 %) of rail and iwwin medium and long distance transport (> 300 Km),
- triple the high speed railway network by 2030.

TEN-T development 1996 - 20071996 TEN Guidelines for EU 15 (Dec. 1692/96/EC):
dense basic network + 14 Priority Projects(“Essen”)
1997 Pan-European Corridors I – X(“Helsinki Corridors”)
1999 TINA (= “Transport Infrastructure Needs Assessment”)
2004 Guidelines revision - EU27 (Dec. 884/2004/EC) : dense basic network (“old” MS)+ TINA network (“new” MS)+ 30 Priority Projects (“Van Miert”)
2007 Financing regulation 2007-2013 (Reg. 680/2007/EC)
2007 Communication on the extension of the major TEN axesto neighbouring countries(“De Palacio”)

Deficiencies of present TEN-T’sSince 1996 and 2004 significant changes in the fields:- geopolitical environment,- economy,- environment and climate policy,- general transport policy.
The existing Priority Projects- do not reflect a European planning perspective
(needs of common market and cohesion),- do not take into account environmental and climate needs,- are not multimodal,- do not form a network,- are not sufficiently connected with neighbouring countries
and the rest of the world,- overlap with other concepts
(PETC’s, De Palacio axes, ERTMS and rail freight corridors), - show deficits in their implementation

Preparatory study “TENconnect” launched (2008)
Green Paper (Feb. 2009) and subsequent 1st Public Consultation“Towards a better integrated TEN-T at the service of the common transport policy”
- Basis of 2-layer approach (Comprehensive + Core network),
- Integration of other policy fields into TEN-T(innovation, de-carbonisation, …)
6 Expert Groups (Oct. 2009 – May 2010)
1. Methodology for TEN-T network planning2. Integration of transport policy into TEN-T planning3. ITS and new technologies within the framework of TEN-T4. TEN-T Connections (to third countries)5. TEN-T Financing6. TEN-T Legal Organisation Issues
2nd Public Consultation (May – September 2010)
TEN-T Days Zaragoza (June 2010)
From the Green Paper to Zaragoza

Elaborating Commission’s ProposalRevision of Comprehensive Network(“bottom-up”, but based on guidance note):- more balanced network density,- concentration on relevant ports and airports,- inclusion of multimodal platforms.
Finalisation of the methodology for Core Network planning(taking into account the opinions of stakeholders, in particular of- Member States,- other EC services
Identification of Core Network(“top-down” by means of methodology, with input from Member States)
Guidelines Drafting,
Impact Assessment,

The Comprehensive NetworkRevision of the existing Comprehensive Network(road, rail, inland waterways, ports, airports, …):
- upgrading of maps,according to progress of implementation since last revision;
- addition of “missing links” to close gaps,mainly in new Member States;
- removal of dead ends or isolated links,if not specifically justified;
- ports and airports: new selection criteria defined(quantity thresholds, geographical criteria);
- new “multimodal layer”: logistic platforms included.
Importance of the Comprehensive Network:- basis for Core Network (which will be a subset)- basis for other EU policy fields
(e.g. cohesion policy, structural funds)
| 19Transeuropean Networks Energy & Transport
The Core NetworkThe core network (a subset of the comprehensive network) shall:- be multimodal and coherent, spanning the entire Community;- be made up of nodes and links of high strategic importance
including the main ports and airports (gateways);- be linked to infrastructures beyond EU member states;- include the “Motorways of the Sea”;- include supplementary infrastructure measures;- reflect the main long-distance / international traffic flows
(passengers / freight; existing / potential);- correspond to the long-term needs of the Community and
remain stable over a reasonably long period (~ 2030);- allow investment needs and projects to be derived top-down (unlike the existing 30 priority projects).
Obligations:- implementation by 2030,- integration of major airports into rail system by 2050.
| 20Transeuropean Networks Energy & Transport
Urban Main NodesCities, city clusters and conurbations):- the capitals of all Member States,- the MEGA's = “MEtropolitan Growth Areas”
(ESPON atlas 2006), - conurbations, city clusters > 1 M inhabitants:
basis: “Larger Urban Zones” (“LUZ”)acc. to Urban Audit (EUROSTAT);
Urban main nodes include within and around their LUZ areaall multimodal interconnecting infrastructure for passengers and freightas far as qualified for the Comprehensive Network:- seaports and inland ports,- airports,- railway stations,- multimodal platforms, etc.
Urban nodes link long-distance, regional, local transportfor passengers and freight!
| 21Transeuropean Networks Energy & Transport
Ports (if not qualified as part of a primary city node):
- annual throughput > 1 % of the EU total (bulk, non-bulk): interpolation: + > 1,0;
- the largest one per each NUTS 1 region with access to sea,per each continuous coastline;
Core Network sea and inland ports shall be linked to more than 1 mode(except in countries with road, only).
Border Crossing Points:
- One border Crossing point per modefrom each EU Member Stateto each neighbouring non-EU Member State
(Basically the points with the greatest traffic volumes shall be taken, which in many cases coincides with the border crossing pointsof the major axes to neighbouring countries (de Palacio).)
bulkthreshold for bulk
non-bulkthreshold for non-bulk
Ports and other Main Nodes
| 22Transeuropean Networks Energy & Transport
Core Network Links- “Neighbouring” main nodes shall be connected by links
(of the Comprehensive Network, with appropriate parameters),following traffic flows.
- More distant nodes shall be connected indirectly(=> chains of links => network polygon).Should traffic flows not follow the corresponding detour,a direct connection shall be foreseen.
- Traffic shall be bundledalong infrastructure existing or under implementation,if traffic flows follow and capacities are sufficient;
- If (for one or several modes) a link between primary nodesdoes not exist, such a link shall be foreseen only if:- justified as “missing link" of a potential corridor,- implementation by 2030 is realistically feasible.This allows gaps in the network and modal differentiation.

Implementation: Corridor ApproachMultimodal Core Network Corridors:- as far as possible following rail freight corridors,- starting/ending points in Core Network ports
(or continued towards third countries),- following Core Network nodes and links- passing through at least three Member States
Functionalities and equipment of corridors:- multimodality,- interoperability,- traffic information and management,- application of low carbon technologies
Implementation of Core Network corridors:- agreed with Member States,- steered by European Coordinator,- funding and financing agreed
