1 TEN-T Italian Transport Programme European Strategy 2050 TEN-T Methodology: Italian TEN-T network proposal Green Corridors in the TEN Network 6-7 September 2011 TRENTO Ministero delle Infrastrututre e dei Trasporti Directorate - General for Spatial Planning - TEN T Unit

2 the context: The 2011 White Paper Towards a competitive and resource efficient transport system WP 1992 Opening the transport market WP 2001 Rebalancing modes to fight capacity constraints WP 2011 Putting transport in the wider EU 2020 perspective: Challenges ahead A vision for the transport system of target (-60% of GHG emissions) and 10 indicative goals/benchmarks to guide policy action How to do it 4 i s: Internal Market, Innovation, Infrastructure and International

3 the context: European Strategy European transport strategy: 2050 scenario The white paper 2011 is focused on three key drivers: 1.To create a real efficient and integrated transport system; it should ease the movements of citizens and freight, reduce costs and enhance the sustainability of European transport;(single European Railway Area; Single European Sky; Blue Belt). 2. To achieve a faster and cheaper transition to a more efficient and sustainable European transport system through technological innovation. 3. To adopt modern infrastructure, smart pricing and new financing instruments.

4 the context: Transport for business Transport as a business The EU economy is one of the most open in the world. The future prosperity of our continent will depend on the ability of all of its regions to remain part of a fully integrated world economy The transport industry is an important part of the economy: in the EU it directly employs around 10 million people and accounts for about 5% of GDP Many European companies are world leaders in infrastructure, logistics, manufacturing of transport equipment and traffic management systems

5 the context: Growing congestion and poorer accessibility Fuel costs and congestion levels are expected to rise significantly by 2030, leading to further divergences in accessibility

6 the context: A tight carbon budget for the transport.in October 2009, the European Council showed support for the objective of reducing GHG emissions in the EU by 80 to 95% by 2050 compared to 1990 levels Source: PRIMES-TREMOVE and TREMOVE Mt of CO Transport Energy industries Industry Residential Tertiary Source: PRIMES, NTUA (E3MLab) Transport accounts for about one fourth of GHG emissions: 60% comes from passenger transport, one quarter is urban, less than one quarter is inter-continental and over half is medium-distance

7 the context: Meeting the challenge To meet the challenges, transport has to: Use less energy Use cleaner energy Exploit efficiently a multimodal, integrated and intelligent network

8 the context: Ten Goals for competitive and resource efficient transport New and sustainable fuels and propulsion systems 1 Halve the use of conventionally-fuelled cars in urban transport by 2030; phase them out in cities by 2050; achieve essentially CO2-free city logistics by % of low-carbon sustainable fuels in aviation and 40% (if feasible 50%) less emissions in maritime by

9 the context: Ten Goals for competitive and resource efficient transport Optimising the performance of multimodal logistic chains, including by making greater use of more energy-efficient modes 3 30% of road freight over 300 km should shift to other modes by 2030, and more than 50% by Triple the length of the existing high-speed rail network. By 2050 the majority of medium-distance passenger transport should go by rail 5 A fully functional and EU-wide multimodal TEN-T core network by By 2050, connect all core network airports to the rail network; all seaports to the rail freight and, where possible, inland waterway system 9

10 the context: Ten Goals for competitive and resource efficient transport Increasing the efficiency of transport and of infrastructure use with information systems and market-based incentives 7 Deployment of SESAR by 2020 and completion of the European Common Aviation Area. Deployment of ERTMS, VTS, ITS, SSN and LRI, RIS and Galileo 8 By 2020, establish the framework for a European multimodal transport information, management and payment system , move close to zero fatalities in road transport 10Move towards full application of user pays and polluter pays principles 10

11 the context: 4 i s How to do it 4 i s nternal market: Create a genuine Single European Transport Area by eliminating all all residual barriers between modes nnovation: EU research needs to to address the full cycle of of research, innovation and deployment in in an integrated way. nfrastructure: nternational: EU transport infrastructure policy needs a common vision and sufficient resources. The costs of of transport should be reflected in in its its price in in an undistorted way. Opening up third country markets in in transport services, products and investments continues to to have high priority.

12 the context: 4 i s: Infrastructure nfrastructure: Revision of TEN-T (2011) based on the creation of a core network and on a corridors approach. Over 1.5 trillion investments for A single framework to use coherently money in TEN-T, cohesion and structural funds. Conditionality of funding will ensure focus on EU priorities and adoption of new technologies (2011) Single management structures for rail freight corridors Guidelines for the application of infrastructure costs to passenger cars (2012). In a second stage, a framework for the internalisation of costs to all road vehicles

13 the context: The new TEN-T T Guidelines Reflect the White Paper Policies Support the Development of a European Mobility Network [Freight and Passengers] Structure a Comprehensive TEN-T Network and a Core Network Leading to Full modal integration Motorways of the Sea are the Maritime Dimension of the new TEN-T

14 strategy enforcement & implementation Strategy implementation The Italian Ministry of infrastructures and transport is presently involved in the definition of the Europe 2020 transport strategy which includes the revision of the national TEN-T network. The guidelines are included in the General Plan for Transport and in the Logistics National Plan 2011.

15 TEN T Revision Process TEN-T Revision process The new dimension of the policy framework led the Commission in 2009 to launch a substantial review of the TEN-T policy: a dual layer planning approach was proposed, consisting of a comprehensive network as the basic layer and a core network, representing the strategically most important part of the TEN T. National geographical maps will be updated consistently. Italy emphasized the relevance of the cross border connections as an infrastructural prerequisite for a real global market.

16 TEN T Revision Process TEN-T Core Network Corridors Core network corridors shall be based on modal integration, interoperability as well as on a coordinated development and management of infrastructure, in order to lead to resource-efficient multimodal transport: They are a component of the core network They shall involve at least three transport modes They shall cross at least three Member States They shall cover the most important cross-border long distance of the core network They shall include accesses to maritime ports.

17 PP23 PP23 - Baltic-Adriatic Corridor The Baltic-Adriatic Corridor is the one of the most important northsouth routes in Europe and the eastern most crossing of the Alps; it connects the Baltic Sea with the Adriatic. Italy asked its extension from Wien to Ravenna, via Klagenfurt, Udine - Venezia / Trieste /Bologna, to enhance the northern Adriatic ports development. 17

20 IWW network IWW network To enhance multimodality and to highlight a sustainable solution to the present congested transport system of the River Po Valley, Italy supported inland waterways, with the extension of about km, inside the framework of the TEN T revision process.

21 Italian IWW Core Network Proposal As a connection between two core nodes (Milan and Venice), Italy proposed the IWW highlighted in red, as part of the core network, thanks to the prolongation of the axis till the outskirt of Milan (Trucazzano logistics centre) creating an efficient multimodal network.

22 RETI TEN-T Road network Road comprehensive network and proposed core network Starting from about km, the comprehensive network will reach an extension of more than km with at least 31 new road routes. 22

23 RETI TEN-T Road network Road comprehensive network and proposed core network 23

24 RETI TEN-T Rail network Rail comprehensive network and proposed core network Starting from about km, the comprehensive network will reach an extension of more than km with about 530 km of new AV/AC lines. 24

25 RETI TEN-T Rail network Rail comprehensive network and proposed core network 25

26 RETI TEN-T MOS Ports MOS ports Italy submitted the proposal to revise the methodological principle according to which the Motorways of the Sea will connect only core ports. Italy considers that this principle is not consistent with the attempt, carried out so far, to give full effect to the Motorways of the Sea and it constitutes a disincentive to the success of this measure of intermodal transport. 26
