Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to investigate the relation between the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T) and the green corridor concept. First, the need is established for a corridor governance structure that enables the close cooperation among the numerous stakeholders from both the public and private sectors engaged in all corridor related issues ranging from network design to the provision of integrated logistical solutions. The governance scheme of the recently introduced TEN-T core network corridors seems to fulfil this requirement.
Following a brief history of TEN-T development, the 2013 major overhaul of the EU transportation infrastructure policy is outlined and the basic differences with the past are pinpointed. The provisions of the new TEN-T Guidelines are scrutinized so as to check whether the TEN-T core network corridors exhibit the characteristics of a green corridor, as they have been identified in the previous chapter. Based on the results of this analysis, it is concluded that the TEN-T core network is, as far as its freight dimension is concerned, a network of green corridors.

A fourth model relates to an institution responsible for developing public-private partnerships for improving the operation of facilities and services in the corridor. However, this model is dropped from the present analysis, as it is effective only at the domestic level.

The race was declared officially over at the end of its first leg Versailles—Bordeaux (552 km), after half of the 224 participating vehicles (170 cars and 54 motorcycles) had crashed or retired, 8 people had died (3 spectators and 5 racers) and over 100 had been wounded. No other races on public streets were allowed until 1927 (Mille Miglia).

According to the terminology of the TEN-T Guidelines, a “project of common interest” is one that pursues the set objectives of the guidelines, corresponds to one or more of the set priorities of the guidelines, is economically viable on the basis of a socio-economic cost/benefit analysis, relates to the routes of the outline plans and meets the specifications set by the guidelines.

The TEN-T EA was established in 2006 to follow the technical and financial implementation of all TEN-T projects throughout their entire lifecycle, to provide support to the beneficiaries of TEN-T financing and to coordinate with other institutional partners. It became autonomous in 2008 and was succeeded by the Innovation and Networks Executive Agency (INEA) as of 1 January 2014.
