Infrastructure and Investment

Nine European Transport Corridors and two horizontal priorities were created to structure and support the completion of the trans-European transport network.

While the environmental, economic and connectivity benefits of completing the Trans-European Transport network (TEN-T) are immense, the procedures that this entails are quite complex, which has led to delays of TEN-T implementation, especially in the case of cross-border projects.

CINEA received 258 applications requesting over €9.5 billion in co-funding from the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) Transport by the call deadline of 21 January 2025. It is nearly four times more than the €2.5 billion budget available for the 2024 CEF Transport calls for proposals.

Nine European Coordinators have been designated today to help complete the trans-European transport network (TEN-T), a vast infrastructure network of railways, roads, and inland waterways connecting the European Union.

The Commission welcomes the final adoption of the Regulation underpinning the trans-European transport network (TEN-T) by the European Parliament and the Council.

As part of the activities linked to the tenth anniversary of the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) Programme, CINEA launched a new interactive web-page to showcase the contribution of the CEF for Transport Programme to greening and decarbonising the transport sector.
