The European Commission has decided to award financial support to the 16 best projects submitted under the third call of the Marco Polo Programme. These projects will result in an important transfer of freight off heavily congested roads to more environmentally-friendly modes of transport, such as short-sea shipping, rail and inland waterways. The financial support awarded to the 16 selected projects amounts to € 21.7 million. |
