Introduction

Since 1995, the European Union has the possibility of granting financial aid to projects of common interest included in the EU Guidelines for the development of the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T). The TEN Regulation1 of the European Parliament and of the Council, adopted in 2007, enables the Commission to contribute more efficiently and effectively to the financing of the highest priorities of the TEN-T. Under the 2007-2013 financing framework, the entire €8,013 million budget has been allocated to date. The allocated funds have been contributing to the gradual implementation of this network. Under the Multi-annual programme (80 to 85% of the available budgetary resources) the TEN Regulation provides for a strong concentration of available funds on the TEN-T Priority Projects approved in 2004 and on projects in the field of traffic management, and promotes in particular the enhanced sup-port of cross-border sections along the Priority Projects. Amongst the supported projects are actions of key European added value such as cross-border sections and key bottlenecks of the TEN-T as well as horizontal priorities. In ad-dition the assistance of European Co-ordinators on certain Priority Projects, help to overcome difficulties through ‘non-financial’ action.

Under the Annual work programme (15 to 20% of the available budgetary resources) the TEN Regulation provides the financing of a large number of smaller projects covering the different modes of transport. They projects are also hav-ing significant effects on the achievement of the EU’s objectives in this area, notably through project pipeline prepa-ration (feasibility studies, impact assessment and design studies). Much has thus already been achieved through the joint funding of important TEN-T projects by Member States and the EU. On this basis the Commission, in coordination with the TEN-T Executive Agency (TEN-T EA), published on 28 November 2012 under the Multi-annual Programme a Call for proposals2 with a total indicative budget of €1,347 million3 broken down to the following fields:

•AirTrafficManagement(ATM)withanindicativebudgetof€50million;•EuropeanRailTrafficManagementSystems(ERTMS)withanindicativebudgetof€100million;•IntelligentTransportSystems(ITS),includingEuropeanElectronicTollService(EETS)withanindicativebudgetof€50million;•MotorwaysoftheSea(MoS)withatotalindicativebudgetof€80million;•RiverInformationServices(RIS)withanindicativebudgetof€10million;•PriorityProjects(PPs)withatotalindicativebudgetof€1,057million.

This call is based on the TEN Regulation as well as the specific Commission Implementing Decisions on the Multi-an-nual Work Programmes for grants in the field of the TEN-T network for 2012 and 20134, which were adopted through the Comitology procedure in November 2012 and March 2013 respectively. Under this call, a total of 197 project proposals were received, of which 189 fulfilled the formal eligibility criteria. In evaluating these proposals, the Com-mission, in collaboration with the TEN-T Executive Agency, strictly applied the criteria set out in the TEN Regulation and in the 2012 and 2013 Multi-annual Work Programmes. The involvement of external experts in the evaluation of all eligible proposals enhanced the objectivity and technical quality of the overall selection process. The Commission, with the support of the TEN-T Executive Agency, has completed the evaluation and selection process of proposals on the basis of the TEN-T 2012 and 2013 Multi-annual Work Programmes. It intends to adopt a decision that sets out the results of this process, i.e. a decision that, in accordance with Article 9 of the TEN Regulation, establishes the projects to be selected under the 2012 and 2013 Multi-annual Work Programmes and the amounts of financial aid to be granted to these projects. The Commission is confident that the funding proposal outlined on the following pages responds, in the best possible way, to key transport and TEN-T policy objectives, and that it contributes to supporting EU action in the field of the Trans-European Transport Network. The first part of this brochure sets the legal frame-work and political context of the 2012 Multi-annual call. The second part presents the key elements of the proposals received under the call in the targeted fields. It contains information on the selection process and its outcome as well as information about the individual proposals including maps for the proposals recommended for funding. Finally, the brochure also includes lists of proposals recommended and not recommended for funding.

1. The legal framework and political context of the 2012 Multi-Annual Call for Proposals

In coherence with Regulation (EC) No 680/2007 of the European Parliament and the Council laying down general rules for the granting of EU financial aid in the field of Trans-European Networks (the ‘TEN Regulation’), the Commis-sion Decision C(2012) 1574 as amended by Commission Decision C(2012) 8508 of 27 November 2012, as well as the 2013 Multi-annual Work Programme1 adopted on 21 March 2013 established the 2012 and 2013 Multi-annual Work Programmes for granting financial aid in the field of the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T). These Multi-annual Work Programmes led to the publication on 28 November 2012 of a Call for proposals in the framework of TEN-T (published in the Official Journal of the European Union C 368/16 on 28 November 2012).

The Work Programmes and the amendment, where applicable, include a total amount of €1,347 million broken down in the following fields:

•AirTrafficManagement(ATM)withanindicativebudgetof€50million;•EuropeanRailTrafficManagementSystems(ERTMS)withanindicativebudgetof€100million;•IntelligentTransportSystems(ITS),includingEuropeanElectronicTollService(EETS)withanindicativebudgetof€50million;•MotorwaysoftheSea(MoS)withatotalindicativebudgetof€80million;•RiverInformationServices(RIS)withanindicativebudgetof€10million;•PriorityProjects(PPs)withatotalindicativebudgetof€1,057million.

The objectives of each field were defined in the 2012 Multi-annual Work Programme and its amendment:

Air Traffic Management (ATM)The objective in this area is to implement Single European Sky and ATM modernisation objectives based on the restructuring of European airspace and the way in which it is organised and managed (Functional Airspace Blocks) and on the implementation of the technologies and procedures to modernise the European ATM system (SESAR pro-gramme).

The creation of Functional Airspace Blocks is a key step in the reduction of fragmentation and the consolidation of air traffic service provision in the medium term through the reorganisation of airspace and the way in which it is man-aged. It will necessitate the rationalisation of infrastructure and the achievement of a harmonised technical baseline. It constitutes a transitional phase for the restructuring of ATM in the EU and will facilitate the implementation of the SESAR systems in the longer term.

The objective of the SESAR programme is the modernisation of the ATM systems through the definition, develop-ment, validation and implementation of new ATM infrastructure in Europe to increase capacity, enhance safety and interoperability and reduce environmental impact to meet traffic growth to 2020 and beyond.

European Rail Traffic Management Systems (ERTMS)The overall objective, based on Article 10 of the TEN-T Guidelines, is to promote the deployment of the European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS) which today consists of two components GSM-R and ETCS (the European Train Control System).

Through the elimination of technical barriers to interoperability, the deployment of ERTMS will directly contribute to the achievement of key transport policy objectives such as: the establishment of major interoperable transport axes interconnecting national networks and facilitating the functioning of the internal market; the optimal use of existing infrastructure capacities; improving the safety and reliability of the network; enhancing accessibility of peripheral areas of the Union; facilitating congestion relief on rail infrastructure and more balanced modal distribution; savings in terms of the environmental effects of transport.

Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), including the European Electronic Toll Service (EETS)The priorities for ITS including EETS are:

•The“optimisationofthecapacityandefficiencyofexistingandnewinfrastructure,promotionofintermodalityandimprovementofthesafetyandreliabilityofthenetworkbyestablishingandimprovingintermodalterminalsandtheiraccessinfrastructureand/orbydeployingintelligentsystems(art.5oftheTENguidelines);•“Thenetworkshallalsoincludeinfrastructurefortrafficmanagement,userinformation,dealingwithincidentsandemergenciesandelectronicfeecollection,suchinfrastructurebeingbasedonactivecooperationbetweentrafficmanagementsystemsatEuropean,nationalandregionallevelandprovidersoftravelandtrafficinformationandvalueaddedservices,whichwillensurethenecessarycomplementaritywithapplicationswhosedeploymentisfacilitatedunderthetrans-Europeantelecommunicationsnetworksprogramme.”(art.9oftheTENGuidelines).

River Information Services (RIS)The overall objective, based on Article 11.5 and 16 of the TEN Guidelines, is to foster the deployment of “RIS Intel-ligent Infrastructure”, reflecting a European wide harmonised implementation of River Information Services (RIS), regulated through Directive 2005/44/EC2 which defines binding rules for data communication and RIS equipment as well as the minimum level of RIS Services for future RIS implementations. The Directive provides the framework for the deployment of harmonised and interoperable RIS systems and services across Europe.

For the programming period of 2007-2013, projects shall focus on the deployment of enabling infrastructure and on the provision of River Information Services. The multiplicity of these services requires a high level of interoperability and compatibility of the services themselves, of the enabling technologies behind and of the related processes.

In order to support the co-ordinated implementation of RIS in Europe, the TEN-T RIS Masterplan inventorised national ongoing and planned RIS activities as well as investment plans and identified a number of technical issues which are considered key priorities in the context of the TEN-T programme. It further identified a number of legal and organi-sational issues, which would need to be addressed at a certain point in order to optimise the benefits of RIS and to ensure a co-ordinated, harmonised and synchronised implementation in the different countries involved.

Priority Projects concerning rail, road and inland waterways (PPs)The programme aims at channelling Union aid at supporting sections of priority projects (in the rail, road and inland waterway sectors) which promise the highest added value for the projects as a whole, i.e. cross-border sections, innovation actions and the removal of bottlenecks. This area addresses also ongoing Actions on PPs that applied for higher co-funding rates.

2. Key elements of proposals received under the 2012 Multi-Annual Call for Proposals

1. General Overview197 proposals were received in response to the 2012 Multi-annual Calls for proposals. 189 of these proposals were eligible and addressed the EU and transport priorities set out in the amended Multi-annual Work Programme 2012 as well as the Multi-annual Work Programme 2013.

2. Budgetary featuresThe total amount requested by applicants for the 2012 Multi-annual Calls in the eligible proposals was €5,727,775,792 while the total indicative budget for the call was €1,347 million for the six fields.

Table 1: Eligible proposals including the requested funding and indicative budget by priority

Priority Number of eligible proposals

Requested TEN-T funding (€ million)

Budget available (€ million)

ATM 9 107.48 50

ERTMS 27 250.73 100

ITS-EETS 12 206.62 50

RIS 4 3.43 10

PPs 115 4,946.82 1,057

TOTAL 189 5,727.77 1,347

As evidenced above, all fields were largely oversubscribed except for River Information Services (RIS).

3. The selection of proposalsThe selection process was carried out in three steps:

1. An external evaluation of proposals was organised by the TEN-T Executive Agency. The technical appraisal of each proposal against four blocks of award criteria (relevance, maturity, impact and quality) was made individually by at least three external experts. These experts then discussed each proposal and agreed on a consensus recom-mendation for or against funding and on a score for each of the four blocks of award criteria. This evaluation by external experts, which did not take into consideration the budgetary constraints, led to the recommendation of 134 proposals representing a total TEN-T requested funding of €5,249,827,671.30, which was 3.9 times more than the available budget (€1,347 million).

2. An appraisal in relation to the EU transport policy priorities and the objectives and restrictions set by the 2012 Multi-annual Call was undertaken internally, on the basis of the policy-related aspects mentioned in the ‘final se-lection process’ section of the call texts. An Internal Evaluation Panel, composed of representatives of DG MOVE, the TEN-T Executive Agency and DG ENV reviewed each proposal individually, to cut any costs and/or activities that would not be eligible or not recommended for funding. It also considered each proposal in view of the TEN-T objectives and priorities and its compliance with EU environmental law.

3. Finally, the Evaluation Committee composed of DG MOVE and TEN-T EA Directors confirmed the recommendation of the Internal Evaluation Panel.

Overall, the external and internal evaluation process resulted in recommending 89 proposals representing a total TEN-T funding of €1,348,385,369 (see Figure 1). Therefore, the indicative budget of €1,347 million will be entirely consumed together with unallocated amounts (€2,781,500) from the 2012 Annual call for proposals. Only proposals receiving a positive recommendation from the external evaluation were recommended for funding.

The European market for LNG fuel is very small and immature, with no facility for the small-scale supply of LNG. To solve the “chicken/egg situation”, in which the market is waiting for the ports to create the infrastructure and the ports, in turn,

are waiting for the market, this Action aims to take the first step by creating a break bulk infrastructure for small-scale LNG supply in the Ports of Rotterdam and Gothenburg.

The project consists of two components: the LNG break bulk facility at the Port of Rotterdam adjacent to the Gate terminal and the small-scale satellite terminal in Skarvikshamnen, Gothenburg. The Action will be implemented by a consortium of LNG Break Bulk Rotterdam C.V. (a joint venture of Vopak LNG Holding B.V. and N.V. Nederlandse Gasunie), Vopak LNG Holding B.V. and Swedegas as terminal and infrastructural operators, as well as the Ports of Rotterdam and Gothenburg.

This Action is composed of studies that aim at determining the feasibility of implementing LNG bunkering facilities in the Port of Roscoff (northwestern France) and the Port of Santander (northern Spain). They take into account the conform-

ity of the infrastructures and equipment with the standards for risk prevention (Seveso Directive), environmental protection and the eventual constraints, revealed by the impact assessments and the public inquiries. The findings of these studies will be essential to Brittany Ferries in order to decide about the construction of new or retrofitted LNG vessels and for port authorities in Roscoff and Santander for decisions regarding the development of LNG bunkering infrastructures.

Completing the missing link of the Seine North Europe canal (SNE) between Compiègne and Aubencheul-au-bac is a prerequisite.

The inland waterway transport network associated to SNE will provide for a reduction of the energy consumption linked to fret transport, for safer roads, congestion reduction and CO2 reduction, whilst developing waterborne logistic services fitting supply needs in urban areas.

In line with the requirements of EC Regulation 29/2009/EC and the FAB CE Free Move Scenario, the Action aims to

develop the Hungarian air traffic control system MATIAS (Mag-yar Automated and Integrated Air Traffic System) in order to fulfil the requirements relating to the CPDLC (Controller- Pilot Data Link Communication — the standard communication between the air traffic controller and the pilot through data link). As a result, MATIAS will secure the necessary and system-wide requirements of the FAB-CE Free Move Scenario, as well as realise the innovations needed for required aviation safety.

The CITIES+ partners aim at deploying strategic ITS services to enhance interfaces between urban/interurban networks and TEN-

T roads. Truly devoted to reduce bottlenecks, these implementations have been selected during the elaboration phase with regard to their compliance with the TEN-T call, their impact on traffic fluidity and the potential for replication. When appropriate, the CITIES+ partners will take existing ITS standards such as DATEX2, Mare Nostrum and the EasyWay 2012 Deployment Guidelines into account in order to foster interoperability and service harmonisation on crucial stretches. Interactions and collaborations should be considered in addition to the scope of road network since public transport and other alleviating measures such as buses and High Occupancy Vehicles (HOV) lanes, traffic management for large events or integrated and/or connected traveller information services.

The key idea behind this project proposal is to provide the effec-tive and successful implementation of the Motorways of the Sea

in the Baltic and Black Sea regions. The Action is composed of six activities with the main goal to initiate the planning and safety proce-dures, related to the development of LNG infrastructure in the Baltic Sea ports (Trelleborg, Sundsvall, Gdańsk/Gdynia), so that the number of Baltic ports planning the LNG infrastructure will be enlarged, thus creating a network of LNG ports in the region. The planning procedures will also be initiated in another two ports (Burgas, Varna) in the southeastern part of the EU.

The major expected result is the development of a platform, knowl-edge transfer and close cooperation between the in terms of LNG more experienced Baltic Sea and less advanced Black Sea regions.

The proposed Action will improve capacity, productivity and environmental performance of the Trelleborg-Swinoujscie mari-

time link. It will contribute to sustaining the competitiveness and attractiveness of related multi-modal and international transport chains linking the Nordic and continental European countries.

In regards to Eastern European related traffic development, i.e. those connected to the pre-defined TEN-T corridor 1 between Southern Sweden and Poland have experienced a strong growth over the last few years (+14% per year since 2007). The proposed Action will ensure adequate maritime capacity and efficiency to sus-tain this freight transport demand. In particular, unitised cargo traffic on routes between Scandinavia and Eastern/Central/ Southeast Europe have large growth potential — also as intermodal transport. Activities involve maritime access, on-shore power supply, intermodal capacity, IT tools and a market study.

The current container terminal at the Port of Enns has reached its ca-pacity limits of 180,000 movements per year. The ENNS MULTIMODAL

project will develop a modern container terminal with enhanced rail infra-structure, integration of IWW port facilities and an extensive logistics cen-tre of more than 3.5 million m² - making it the largest integrated industrial development area on the upper Danube. The terminal is strategically situated on the upper Danube and especially relevant for Priority Project 17 (Railway axis Paris-Strasbourg-Stuttgart-Wien-Bratislava), Priority Project 22 (Railway axis Athina– Sofia–Budapest–Wien–Praha–Nürnberg/Dresden) and Priority Project 18 (Wa-terway axis Rhine/Meuse-Main-Danube).

The vision is to provide a trimodal cargo transport centre, consisting of an intermodal terminal and a cargo city, which ensures a reduced burden on metropolitan areas, a modal shift from road to rail and IWW, bundling of volumes, reduced cost by centralisation and support for deep sea ports by providing a state-of-the-art hinterland rail terminal.

Rotterdam, the largest port in Europe, plays a crucial role in the growth and development of Europe. With the share of intermo-

dal rail freight traffic increasing over the last years, to maintain and extend this share and thus to assure a further development of the port, a reduction of bottlenecks and capacity gaps on the hinterland rail corridor is required. The Waalhaven Zuid railway yard, located near Rotterdam’s Rail Service Centre, will become one of the ma-jor bottlenecks on the hinterland rail freight corridor at the Port of Rotterdam. The Global Project will reduce the capacity gap by adding more, high quality railway yard tracks to the existing rail network. This assures the increasing share of intermodal rail freight traffic between Rotterdam and its European hinterland. The proposed Ac-tion will carry out design studies for adding tracks with ancillary equipment to the current layout of Waalhaven Zuid.

Port Salford – removing bottlenecks and improving in-termodality on PP26 and PP14

The proposed Action is very relevant to the call forproposals as it concerns a tri-modal terminal relatingto Priority Projects 26 and 14. It is verymature, withrequiredapprovalsinplaceandworksreadytostart.Verypositivesocio-economicimpactpotentialisforeseenwithallpositiveenvironmentalconsequences.Thequalityoftheproposalisverygood.However,takingintoaccounttheneedtohandlethescarcityoffundsandinlinewiththecallprioritiessupporttothisActionwouldnotopti-misetheeffectivenessofTEN-Tfunding.

Port Salford Intermodal Terminal will be the UK’s first tri-modal freight interchange, served by rail, inland waterway and road. It

will improve efficiency, inter-modality and reduce bottlenecks on Pri-orityProject14 (West coast main line) and PriorityProject26 (Rail-way/road axis Ireland/United Kingdom/continental Europe) and stim-ulate local and regional economic growth. Port Salford is a major part of a government-supported economic growth strategy called Atlantic Gateway. It is located on the Manchester Ship Canal, to the west of Manchester, and will be connected to the Liverpool-Manchester rail line via a new branch line. It will have a new wharf suitable for con-tainer vessels. Port Salford Intermodal Terminal will have a handling capacity of 283,000 TEUs and service up to 8 freight trains per day in this initial phase (up to 16 in future phases), with modal shift from road to rail and inland waterway leading to operational and environ-mental benefits on the TEN-T road network.

Theproposalforanincreasedco-fundingratewaswellpresented. However, taking into account the scarcityof available funds in this area in linewith the call forproposals,anincreaseofTEN-Tfundingwouldnotpro-duceanyaddedvalue.

The main objective of the Action is to facilitate a modal shift from road to sea by providing more efficient transport solutions and improving

access to markets in Central and Northern Europe — especially in the Baltic Sea region. This will relieve the main roads of Central and Northern Europe of excessive heavy cargo transports and result in a significant reduction of the forecast future pressure on sea ports in continental Europe.

The Baltic Sea hub and spokes system is a joint action for the ports of Gothenburg, Aarhus and Tallinn. The three ports represent a large region, whose unique location is close to large markets in both the east and west. On this basis and considering the size and facilities of the ports, the region has a huge potential to attract large transnational carriers. In a wider perspective and in a later phase, the action will also aim to include other ports in the Baltic Sea geographical area and neighbouring countries.
