CHALLENGES PROBLEMS
Develop more efficient and competitive freight
transport systems Develop more eco-friendly and
eco-innovative solutions for transports Work
jointly with the Adriatic-Ionian strategy
Disparities and structural weaknesses between
regions of the Adriatic area Lack of cooperation
between crossborder areas Many individual
initiatives to develop policies Jeopardized
development of infrastructures and multimodal
solutions Underutilization of intermodal
terminals and services

OBJECTIVES
Involve public actors at different levels to
define and test common initiatives on innovative
freight multimodal solutions
Support efficient connections between transport
nodes and hinterland/crossborder areas
Support integration of national and regional
strategies and policies
Boost cooperation between authorities in order to
harmonize and develop a coherent and
comprehensive integrated freight transport
system, based also on ICT innovative solutions

WP4-WP6-WP7
Integrating and upgrading existing multimodal
freight transport services In depth analysis of
existing bottlenecks, of O/D flows. Gain
specific common guidelines to develop more
efficient and sustainable means of transports for
freight, based on multi-modal choices, which will
lead to cross-border cooperation agreements for
harmonized freight transport policies and services

Topics Actions/Specific objectives
Topic 1 - Maritime transport To strengthen maritime safety and security and develop a competitive regional ?intermodal port system Action - Clustering port activities/services throughout the region Following the example of the existing NAPA cooperation agreement, harmonising the ports processes through a common ITS (Intelligent Transport System) would attract traffic that is now avoiding the Region.
Topic 1 - Maritime transport To strengthen maritime safety and security and develop a competitive regional ?intermodal port system Action - Improving and harmonising traffic monitoring and management Strengthening development of a Common Adriatic-Ionian Vessel Traffic Monitoring and Information, will improve safety and security of maritime traffic in the region.
Topic 1 - Maritime transport To strengthen maritime safety and security and develop a competitive regional ?intermodal port system Action - Developing ports, optimising port interfaces, infrastructures and procedures/operations Developing the ports and port terminals in order to boost maritime transport, short-sea shipping capacity and cross-border ferry connectivity.
Topic 2 - Intermodal connections to the hinterland To develop reliable transport networks and intermodal connections with the hinterland, both for freight and passengers Action - Developing the Western Balkans comprehensive network Western Balkans need to prioritise investments on the defined SEETO comprehensive network (railway, inland waterways, nodes and hubs, notably with the motorways of the sea), aimed at promoting sustainable transport in the Region, and to prepare their integration in the Trans-European Network Transport (TEN-T) also with roadmap for investments.
Topic 2 - Intermodal connections to the hinterland To develop reliable transport networks and intermodal connections with the hinterland, both for freight and passengers Action - Improving the accessibility of the coastal areas and islands optimising use of freight and passenger routes and involving private and public stakeholders.
Topic 2 - Intermodal connections to the hinterland To develop reliable transport networks and intermodal connections with the hinterland, both for freight and passengers Action - Developing motorways of the sea Intermodal transport requires integrated management of the whole logistic chain. Essential elements are, inter alia, improved road and rail infrastructure linking ports with the hinterland and improved infrastructure within a port and ITS solutions.
Topic 2 - Intermodal connections to the hinterland To develop reliable transport networks and intermodal connections with the hinterland, both for freight and passengers Action - Railway reform Taking measures to expedite progress in railway reform, e.g. transparent non-discriminatory access to rail terminals, in particular in sea and inland ports, introducing a concession approach for infrastructure, with direct cost- oriented track access charges, performance schemes and management contracts for authorised applicants
Topic 2 - Intermodal connections to the hinterland To develop reliable transport networks and intermodal connections with the hinterland, both for freight and passengers Action - Development of air transport
Topic 2 - Intermodal connections to the hinterland To develop reliable transport networks and intermodal connections with the hinterland, both for freight and passengers Action - Cross-border facilitation This requires physical and non-physical investments on specific transport axes.

Cross cutting issues
Institutional and administrative capacity of the national and regional bodies responsible for transport (maritime, land, air) is essential for effective coordination at macro-regional level, for coordination in the TEN-T and TEN-E context and, eventually, for achieving the objectives set. Capacity building should aim, inter alia, to help joint planning, financing and implementation of actions. It should aim, first and foremost, to bolster macro-regional thinking.
Communication and awareness-raising is essential for participation of stakeholders in the decision-making process and for building a feeling of ownership in the population.
Investments in transports and in energy networks can benefit from innovative approaches which would come from research. ?The business community, and in particular the small and medium size enterprises, would benefit directly from investments in the sectors, ?

Correlation with EASYCONNECTING on the coordinated approach that holds together the infrastructure topic with softer aspects related to innovation and the competitiveness of multimodal services
Correlation with EASYCONNECTING on the macro-regional perspective essential to promote the development and the sustainable connection between transport networks
The Cross-Border approach is underlined trough the idea of the MACRO AREAS (3) with different needs which will report detailed informations on unique MoU that well forward to the EC and disseminate together with event in Brussel.
