GSS EU Science Funding Gateway

Works on roads and rail-road terminals, with the possibility to include studies, related to:

• pre-identified road links as stipulated in Section 2 of Part III of the Annex of the CEF Regulation;
• components of the Comprehensive road Networks located in Member States which do not have a land border with another Member State;
• improving road connections to maritime and inland ports and rail-road terminals as long as the actions do not aim at increasing road transport capacity, but address a significant bottleneck;
• construction or upgrade of rail-road terminals, combined transport transhipment points and other publicly accessible multimodal logistics platforms located on the TEN-T Network, including connecting or siding tracks, power connections, safe and secure truck waiting areas, adaptations for 740 m train length, clean transhipment equipment for intermodal loading units, including specific equipment for rolling motorways and the transportation of semi-trailers by rail, and ICT equipment and applications.

Support will not be given to buildings, storage and warehouse facilities. Actions addressing roads shall be compliant with Directive (EU) 2019/1936 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2019 amending Directive 2008/96/EC on road infrastructure safety management and Directive (EU) 2004/54/EC, Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 on minimum safety requirements for tunnels in the Trans-European Road Network.
