The European Commission has accorded financial support to the 13 best actions, which succeeded in the first selection round of the Marco Polo Programme on 28 September 2004. The principal objective of the Programme is transferring 12 billion tonnes/kilometres of freight annually off heavily congested roads to more environmentally-friendly modes of transport: short-sea shipping, rail and inland waterways. This objective will indeed be exceeded by the contracted 13.6 billion tonnes/kilometres of this round.
