1.1. 
In  accordance  with  the  Title  XII  of  the  Treaty  on  European  Union  relating  to 
trans-european  networks,  the  Commission  submitted  to  the  Council,  to  the  European 
Parliament, to the Economic and Social Committee and to the Committee Regions on 7 April 
1994,  a proposal  for  a decision  on  the  Community  guidelines  for  the development  of  the 
trans-european  transport  network2. 

These  guidelines  constitute  a  first  attempt  to  initiate  a  process  of  integration  for  all  the 
guidelines  specific  to each mode of transport  in a vast diagram  reflecting  the vision  of  the 
Union on what the single trans-european  transport  network  in 2010 should be. 

1.2 
The  importance  of  the  adoption  of  the  networks  in particular  for  the  promotion  of 
growth  and of employment in the Union is recognized by the European Parliament  and was 
stressed  at the European  Council of Essen  in December  1994. 

But  since  April  1994,  the  conclusions  of  the  Corfu  and  Essen  Summits  have  stressed  the 
importance  of giving the  impulse necessary  for  the  implementation  of priority  projects  and 
the Union became  richer  by three  new Member  States. 

This communication  is intended to take account of these developments  and to adapt 

1.3 
the original  proposal  of the Commission  of 7 April  1994 accordingly. 

COM(94)106  of  07.04.1994 

2.  COMMISSION  PROPOSALS 

2A 

AMENDMENT  OF ANNEX  I OF THE  ORIGINAL  PROPOSAL 

2.1.1  Since  1 January  1995,  the  European  Union  has  been counting  three  new  Member 
States, namely the Republic of Austria, the Republic of Finland and the Kingdom of Sweden. 

2.1.2  The Treaty  on European  Union envisages  the establishment  and the development of 
trans-european  networks  in the transport  sector  throughout  the Community  territory. 

But when the proposal  for  a decision of the European Parliament and of the Council on the 
Community  guidelines  for  the  development  of  the  trans-european  transport  network  was 
adopted  by  the  Commission  on 7 April  1994,  the  European  Union comprised  only  twelve 
Member  States; 

2.1.3  Consequently,  it was necessary  to supplement these guidelines to take account of the 
expansion  of the European  Union. 

2.1.4  For  their  adhesion,  the  three  Member  States  concerned  took  part  in  the  working 
parties  formed  within  the  Committee  of  the  Infrastructures  and  cooperated  with  the 
Commission  at bilateral  meetings. 
This  work  made  it possible  to draw  up the maps  of networks  schemes  for  these countries, 
in accordance with Annex I, whereas the articles composing the decision remain unchanged. 

2,2  AMENDMENT  OF ARTICLE  10 OF THE ORIGINAL  PROPOSAL 

2.2.1  The additional disposition  of article  10 related to the rail  network  should allow new 
technologies to be taken into consideration  in the field  of high-speed  rail  sector  (eg .5 subject 
to satisfactory  conditions  of  interoperability,  systems  such as TRANSRAPID).

INTRODUCTION  OF ANNEX  III : 

"List of projects  to be started  within the next five years" 

2.3.1 
In amending the proposal by this list the Commission meets the recommendations of 
the European Council in Essen regarding priority projects for the establishment of the TEN-T 
and  the  request  of  the  European  Parliament  to  provide  more  details  on  infrastructure 
investments  which should  commence  in the next five years. 

2.3.2  The list of projects  is meant as guidance for  infrastructure  investments  for  the  first 
five of the  15 years timehorizon when establishing  the TEN-T  as outlined in the guidelines. 
This guidance is addressed  to the Member States, but the Community  institutions  as well as 
financial  bodies and private  investors  are also concerned.  This list one finds  in part already 
in the White book on Growth,  Competetiveness and Employment.  This list was finalized  by 

the Commission using the results of the work done for the Christophersen  group as reported 
to the Essen  summit  in the technical  papers  annexed  to the group's  final  report. 

2.3.3  To  identify  the  projects  included  in  this  list,  the  Christophersen  Group  paid  much 
attention to the establishment of selection criteria for priority projects  and took these criteria 
into consideration  for  evaluation of any project  proposal.  They referred  in particular  to the 
project  size,  scope  for  private  sector  participation  and  state  of  maturity  as  well  as  to 
economic viability and to possible contributions to the Union's competitiveness and to social 
and economic  cohesion  within  the  Union.  Care  was  also  taken to keep  a certain  balance, 
both in modal and in regional terms,  as the priority  projects  were considered  to be of  "pilot 
character". 

2.3.4  The  list  comprises 

* 

* 

* 

the 14 projects  which the European Council in Essen confirmed  as of priority  nature 
and of such maturity  that work may start  in  1995/6. The European  Council  advised 
that these projects  in particular shall be given special attention by the Council and the 
Member  States  concerned  for  their  financing.  Many  of  them  are  also  suitable  for 
public  private  partnerships  which  would  introduce  an  additional  option  in 
infrastructure  financing.  These  projects  were  selected  due  to  their  maturity  not  so 
much for  a balanced  development of the network. 

21^ other  important  projects  which complement  the  14 above mentioned  projects  for 
a structured  development  of the trans-European  transport  network. 

5 pilot projects  by which transport  management services  shall be introduced  into the 
transport  network 

2.3.5  They  can briefly  be described  as followed  : 

High speed train/Combined  transport  North-South 
Berlin-Munchen- Verona 

The  Berlin-Mûnchen-Verona  axis  forms  part  of  a  strategic  European  rail  corridor  which  links 
Scandinavia, Germany, Austria and Italy; it is also important for connections with Greece. It consists 
of two parts: the Berlin-Nurnberg line and the Brenner axis Munchen-Verona. 

High Speed Train 
Paris-Bruxelles-Koln-Amsterdam-London 

The PBKAL consits of the following sections: 
* 
* 
* 
* 

Paris - Lille - (Channel Tunnel) - London 
Bruxelles - Lille (Western Branch) 
Bruxelles - Amsterdam (Northern Branch) 
Bruxelles - Kôln (Eastern Branch). 

High Speed Train South 

The  project  will  link  the  Iberian  Peninsula  to  the  French  High  Speed  Train  network,  thereby 
providing  access to the core of Europe. It will break down in two parts  : in its Mediterranean  side, 
the line goes from  Madrid  to Montpellier  via Zaragoza and Barcelona.  Its  Atlantic part  makes the 
connection  with the French  "TGV Atlantique"on the way to Paris via Bordeaux possible. 

High  Speed  Train  : Paris-Eastern  France  -  Southern  Germany 

Included  in the project  is the construction  of a new line from  Paris  to the eastern border  of  France 
where,  at  two  points,  the  French  and  German  high-speed  railway  networks  are  interconnected:  at 
Forbach/Saarbriicken  and  Strasbourg/Kehl.  Furthermore,  a branch  will  be constructed  which  links 
Metz with Luxemburg. 

Betuwe  line  : Combined  transport/Conventional  Rail 
Rotterdam  -  Dutch/German  border  -  (Rhein/Main) 

The  Betuwe  Line, between  Rotterdam  and  the  Dutch/German  border  will  connect  major  European 
industrial  and consumer  centres (Rhein/Main;  Rhein/Neckar) with the port of Rotterdam.  It will be 
a conventional  railway line with a total  length of  160 km 75% of which will be newly constructed  ; 
on the remaining  sections,  existing  lines will be upgraded 

High  Speed  Train  /  Combined  transport 
Lyon  -  Torino-  Milano-  Venezia-  Trieste 

The Lyon-Torino part of the  project consists of approximately 250 km of new railway line, including 
a 55 km long base tunnel through the Alps. The continuation of the line towards Trieste (430 km) via 
the Po valley would help to improve contacts between the Community  and eastern Europe. 

Motorway  Patras  -  Thessaloniki  and  Via  Egnatia 

The  project  will  be  the  backbone  of  the  Greek  motorway  system  and  is  crucial  to  the  transport 
infrastructure  development in Greece. Via branches it connects the isolated Union Member State with 
all of  its neighbours:  Albania,  Bulgaria,  FYROM  and Turkey. 

Lisbon  -  Valladolid  motorway 

This project  is of great  importance for  the interconnection of the Portuguese and Spanish motorway 
networks; it also facilitates  the link between the networks of the Iberian pensinsula and France and, 
by doing  so,  it contributes  to social and economic cohesion within the Union. 

Rail  link  /  Cork-  Dublin-  Belfast-  Larne-  Stranraer 

The project  involves  a gradual upgrading  of the existing  line to adapt  it for  speeds  of the order of 
200 km/h. The line is intended to serve both passenger and freight  traffic.  The project  complements 
the TEN  rail link (Cork)- Dublin- (Belfast)-  Holyhead- London- Channel tunnel- Benelux countries. 

Malpensa  airport 

Malpensa  airport  forms  part  of  the  existing  Milano  airport  system  which  comprises  furthermore 
Linate airport  as well as the relatively  small Bergamo  airport. 

Fixed rail/road link between Denmark and Sweden (ôresund) including access routes 
Copenhagen - Malmô 

The Ôresund  link will be the first fixed link between the Scandinavian mainland  and the 
continental  Europe. Once complete,  international  freight  and passenger  traffic  will be able to  enjoy 
considerably  improved  conditions. 

Nordic  Triangle 

A joint proposal put forward  by Finland,  Norway and Sweden, the upgrading  of the routes of this 
triangular-shaped  corridor  will provide high quality links between the capital  cities and thus main 
urban areas of four  Nordic countries. This corridor will also serve to connect continental  Europe 
with the Nordic countries  and third  countries beyond. 

Ireland  -  United  Kingdom-  Benelux  road  project 

The corridor  connects the three main nodes in Ireland (Belfast,  Dublin and Cork) by road and  ferry 
links to Scotland, Wales and onwards diagonally through the road system in England to the ports of 
Felixstowe,  Ipswich and Harwich  and  across  the  North Sea to  the  Benelux  network. 

West  Coast  Main  Line 

Forming  part  of  the  existing  UK  railway  network,  the West  Coast  Main  Line  is  one  of  the  most 
important  InterCity  routes.  Via the ports of  Holyhead  in  North Wales  and  Stranraer  in  Scotland  it 
provides access to the corresponding Irish railway network, in particular the Cork-Dublin-Belfast  line. 
It forms  the continuation of the Channel  Tunnel and the Channel  Tunnel Rail  Link. 

Combined  Transport 

Infrastructure  for the needs of combined transport -transshipment equipment,  logistics  infrastructure, 
loading gauge adjustments,  special  rolling  stock - for  the links belonging to the combined  transport 
network; this includes also infrastructure  projects  for the promotion of short  sea shipping as well as 
ports  related  projects 

Spata airport  (Athens) 
Construction of a new airport to replace the existing Athens airport which faces  capacity  constraints 
and can hardly be extended  because of the smallness of the existing airport  site 

Berlin  Airport 
Construction  of a new airport outside Berlin; necessary to meet increasing demand for  capacity and 
to take account  of environmental  requirements  (replacement  of inner-city  airports  and,  as a result, 
reduction of noise pollution) 

Maurienne  Motorway 
Motorway  which connects the French and the Italian networks;  includes the Fréjus  Tunnel 

Marateca-Elvas  Motorway 
Motorway  linking the Portuguese and Spanish networks; missing  link of the Lisboa-Madrid  link 

High speed  Train  Denmark 

Programme concerning the improvement of HST lines; comprising four parts: Copenhagen-Ringsteci, 
Fredericia-Aarhus,  Rôdebyhaven-Storstrôm  bridge, Vordinborg-Kôge. 

Trans-Appenine  Highway  Bologna-Firence 
New construction of the Appenine section of the Milano-Roma motorway. The existing link between 
Bologna and Firence faces considerable capacity constraints; after completion, the new link will allow 
to eliminate  congestion and reduce negative environmental  impacts  and improve road  safety. 

High speed Train/Combined  Transport Danube Axis 
Railway  axis  which  traverses  Austria  in  west-east  direction  (Salzburg-Linz-Wien-Hungarian  and 
Slovak  border. 

Nice-Cuneo  motorway 
Alpin crossing motorway,  which links the French and Italian networks 

Fehmarnbelt  fixed  link 
Fixed  link  between  Germany  and  Denmark  which  will  make  it possible  to develop high  speed  rail 
services between Hamburg  and  Copenhagen. 

Bari-Rrindisi-Otranto motorway 
Motorway following  the Adriatic coast in southern Italy. The motorway will link the major ports sea 
ports which have ferry  services to Greece, Albania and former  Yugoslavia and play a key role in the 
development  of the multimodal  transport  network. 

Rhine-Rhone Link 
Construction of a missing link in the trans-European  inland waterway network, which is of strategic 
importance. The implementation  of the project  will allow to link Marseilles  with rotterdam and, via 
Rhine,  Main and Danube, the Mediterranean with the Black Sea. 

Seine-Escaut Link 
The  inland  waterway  project  links the  whole  of the  Parisian  region  and  the  Seine Bassin  with  the 
whole of the Benelux network. 

Elbe-Oder  link 
The inland waterway  links Berlin and the Polish border and is of great  importance  for  the east-west 
traffic  between North sea ports, german industrial centers and the polish  inland waterway  network. 

Danube upgrading 
Upgrading  of  a 70 km  long  stretch  of  the Danube  in order to eliminate  a bottleneck  on the Rhine-
Main-Danube  axis which links the North Sea with the Baltic Sea. 

High Speed Train Randstad - Dutch/German border - Rhine/Ruhr 
Improvement  of  the  existing  railway  line  between  Amsterdam  and  the  Dutch/German  border; 
contributes to the completion  of the HST link  Amsterdam-Oberhausen-Frankfurt/Main. 

Road Corridor  Valencia-Zaragoza-Somport 
The project links the Spanish and French motorway networks and includes the Somport Tunnel in the 
border  region. 

High Speed Train Milano-Roma-Napoli 
Railway line which links the northern and southern part of Italy and ensures the continuation of such 

High Speed Train MIIsno-Roma-Napoli 
Railway line which links the northern and southern part of Italy and ensures the continuation of such 
axis as Frankfurt-Basel-Milano and Berlin-Miinchen-Verona(Brenner axis). 

High Speed Train  Luxemburg-Brussels 
Link  which  will  allow  considerably  improved  connections  between  European  Institutions. 
Furthermore, it will improve links such as Luxembourg-Amsterdam and Luxembourg-Channel Tunnel 
- London. 

Road Corridor Napoli-Reggio Calabria 
Upgrading of an existing motorway which links the extreme South of Italy with Napoli. It contributes 
to better connecting this part of the country with the North of Italy and with central regions of the 
Union. The project  is also of high importance to the economic development of the regions directly 
concerned. 

Short sea shipping and ports infrastructure  projects 
An investment in port and port-related  infrastructure  shall be made over the next five years, 
much of it to support the development of short  sea shipping.  Improving  port efficiency  will 
play  a large part  in promoting  this development.  These  improvements  will mostly  concern 
better  methods  of  handling  and  better  procedures.  Where  improvements  relate  to 
infrastructure  the  order  of priority  will  be  to consider  the  better  use  of  existing  capacity, 
improvements in existing infrastructure  and the construction of new infrastructure.  A separate 
communication on short  sea  shipping  will be submitted  in the first  half  of  1995. 

2.3.6  The  investments for  the physical infrastructure  to be implemented by these projects 
concern the High speed rail network, mountain and sea crossings, closure of inlandwaterway 
links. They amount to a total of 140 Billion ecu for all 35 projects until 2010. The cost share 
is estimated  as  follows: 

railways: 
motorways: 
inland  waterways 
airports 
maritime 

69% 
20% 
4% 
5% 
2% 

Billion ecu 
97 
28 
5 
7 
3 

Furthermore infrastructure  for traffic management services and interoperability actions would 
be necessary  in order  to use the above mentioned  infrastructure  in the most  efficient  way. 
This would  require  additional 25 Billion ecu until  1999. 

The overall  cost estimate for  these actions concerning  the most urgent parts of the physical 
infrastructure  of  the  trans-European  transport  network  to  be  done  in  the  next  5  years, 
amounts to 66 Billion ecu. 

Projects require most of the time financial support from the Member States. This support can 
only be given in the framework  of their priorities.  The Member  States concerned  therefore 
take the final  decision on the implementation  schedule.
