Summary
The objective is to develop inland waterways transport infrastructure projects on the Comprehensive Network of the TEN-T.
Detailed Call Description
Studies and / or works on inland ports, related to:
- access, including safe access through navigational aids, of inland ports to inland waterways;
- basic and water-side infrastructure in inland ports, including shore-side electricity supply;
- port reception facilities for oil and other waste (including residues from exhaust gas cleaning systems) and infrastructure for degassing vessels to meet environmental requirements;
- providing or improving road/rail access and connections within inland ports;
- ensuring year-round navigability by means of e.g. hydrological services, ice-breaking facilities and dredging of the port and port approaches.
Water-side infrastructure development projects shall mean infrastructure that enhances the navigability capacity or improves the multimodal connection of waterborne transport operations. This excludes infrastructure that does not directly benefit waterborne transport operations.
Waterside infrastructure development projects that improve the navigability capacity and the multimodal connection of waterborne transport can include elements of storage and transhipment facilities and equipment. However, these are only eligible if the proposals that focus on storing and transhipment facilities and equipment rather than on infrastructure will not be considered eligible. Moreover, facilities and equipment that are not used specifically for transhipment from/to inland waterway transport will also not be considered eligible.
Support will not be given to infrastructure dedicated to cruise ships, except as regards shore-side electricity supply.
