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.

The European Commission has today endorsed Malta's Social Climate Plan – the fourth national plan adopted under the Social Climate Fund using revenues from carbon pricing to ensure a fair and inclusive clean transition.

This is the third national plan approved under the new Social Climate Fund. Using carbon pricing revenues, the Fund ensures a fair and inclusive clean transition for vulnerable citizens and businesses.

The Commission launched the 2026 call for proposals under the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF), making €1.1 billion available to build and modernise transport infrastructure on the EU's trans-European transport network (TEN-T), as well as in Ukraine and Moldova.

The European Commission’s Directorate-General for Mobility and Transport has launched the procedure for the selection of a new European TEN-T Coordinator for the North Sea–Baltic European Transport Corridor, with the appointment expected by autumn 2026.
