The multimodal freight terminals must be located in or adjacent to maritime ports, inland ports, airports of the core and extended core network or classified as rail-road terminal or terminal along the inland waterways of the trans-European transport network, as listed in Annex II of the revised TEN-T Regulation.
Studies and / or works on roads and multimodal freight terminals related to:
Road access and connections to the terminals will not be supported, except for projects located in Member States with no land border with another Member State.
Works projects may include on-site renewable energy generation, as a synergetic element in accordance with Section 10.6, such as photovoltaic power plants, wind turbines etc. that is primarily used for example for activities in the terminal. Such synergetic elements must improve the socio-economic, climate or environmental benefits of the project and may not exceed 20% of the total eligible costs of the project.
