Connecting urban agglomerations with 2 Mio or more inhabitants. There are only around 15 of such mega settlements all over Europe.
Target destinations should have at least 300,000 inhabitants Mainly offered by sea-port cities around Europe.
Interoperability should be offered with multi-modal nodes Geostrategic junctions and ports along navigable inland waterways provide these characteristics throughout Europe.
Main transport lines serve as backbones for regional development. A higher-level transport system boosts economy especially at well positioned logistic points along the routes.
