4. International Conference |Edinburgh 5/10/09 What is it PP21 ? European Network of Motorways of the Sea (MoS) Supports concentration of Flows of Freight on reliable sea-based transport services Fully Integrated in door-to-door logistic chains In order to reduce land transport congestion and improve accesibilities Thereby increasing cohesion and moving towards a low-carbon society

5. International Conference |Edinburgh 5/10/09 What are the funding Possibilities ? TEN-T (PP21) – mainly infrastructure Marco Polo – mainly services Structural funds: INTERREG mainly studies + infrastructure EIB State Aids (12/12/2008 complementary guidelines for MoS) autonomous evaluation process

22. The objective of the project "Motorway of the Sea- High quality Rail and Intermodal Nordic Corridor Konigslinie" is to upgrade the existing rail ferry link between the ports of Trelleborg (Sweden) and Sassnitz (Germany) in order to increase the share of rail and intermodal transport on the Swedish- German corridor in particular and also on the Sweden-Central Europe/Italy corridor. Improving the existing rail ferry service by offering more capacity, more efficiency, faster handling in the ports and more flexibility due to the option of a 6th departure (in peak demand periods only), will help it compete with alternative, less sustainable, routes on this transport corridor.

24. International Conference | Edinburgh 5/10/09 The objective of the action is to increase the share of intermodal transports in the South-East/South-West Baltic Motorways of the Seas link through Klaipéda and Karlshamn. To this end, the operator of the service, “DFDS Lisco”, has already increased, as from May 2009, the capacity of the link by 21%. At the same time, the implementation of the Action will considerably improve and enhance the capacity of unitised rail goods handling on the Swedish side, as well as providing infrastructure investment in Karlshamn. The current (2009) intermodal share of the corridor is 18% with the aim to reach the 56% in 2015 and ultimately in 2025 to reach 71%. The activities of the Action will focus on the: Improvement of environmental sustainability by increasing intermodal transports in the corridor. Furthermore, oil sanitation equipment will be acquired in Karlshamn to mitigate risks due to the increase in traffic Elaboration and implementation of a strategy to achieve modal shift, by conducting market studies Increase the loading/unloading speed of containers to vessels, through the purchase and operation of a new crane in Karlshamn Reduction of waiting/transit time with the upgrade and modernisation of the Karlshamn RO-RO terminal Increase of the efficiency and capacity for trains in Karlshamn through the development of the new shunting yard and the electrification and improvement of the port rail track Doubling the container handling capacity by building a new combined terminal Preparation for the improvement of hinterland rail connections through the development of design and EIA for the "missing link" Karlshamn-Olofström Increase of the efficiency in Klaipéda by improving the quay operability for vessels through the installation of a hydraulic device for RO-RO ferries

26. International Conference | Edinburgh 5/10/09 The maritime link between Esbjerg, Denmark and Zeebrugge, Belgium, in service since 2005, has provided an intermodal alternative to truck transport between Denmark and the Benelux countries. This project will be further developed into a Benelux-Scandinavia shortsea bridge. The upgrade of the service will consist of the coordinated increase of the frequency on the Zeebrugge- Esbjerg route, investment in infrastructure and facilities and the adoption of accompanying measures to foster integration of various parts of the intermodal chain. This includes an increase in service by doubling of the capacity of the ro-ro (roll on, roll off) connection between Esbjerg and Zeebrugge. A Motorways of the Sea approach merits in cost savings (up to some 40%) and less CO² emissions (58%) than the alternative road connection. In addition, it reduces congestion on very busy parts of the EU road network. The investment in infrastructure and facilities associated with the upgrade of the maritime link consists of a floating ro-ro ramp, the extension of an access way in Esbjerg, a ro-ro jetty, gantry cranes and ICT development in Zeebrugge. The project will give way to major improvements in the handling of goods and attract more goods on the ro-ro based intermodal concept.

28. International Conference | Edinburgh 5/10/09 The next Marco Polo call will be launched in January, 2009, with a budget of EUR 60 million. Until 2013 there will be annual calls with a similar amounts of budget. Depending on the merits of the projects part of the yearly budgets could fund Motorways of the Sea projects. In the two calls where financing was available for MoS, only one project has been selected for support: "RoRo Past France", a MOS between Spain and Belgium, with a subsidy of EUR 6.8 million. This project is already running. Website for information: http://ec.europa.eu/marcopolo

29. International Conference |Edinburgh 5/10/09 2010 Call Specific Priorities to be defined in the WP  MS + EP + European Coordinator Dedicated MoS budget up to 85 M€ Co-financing up to:  20% for infrastructure  50% for studies  30% for cross-border sections Synergies with Marco Polo or others but no duplication EU funds may be complemented with State Aids (guidelines on state-aids complementarity to comunity funding for MoS projects – 12/12/2008)
