[Recurso eletrónico] "Core network corridors should help to develop the infrastructure of the core network in such a way as to address bottlenecks, enhance cross-border connections and improve efficiency and sustainability. They should contribute to cohesion through improved territorial cooperation.This study aims to support the European Commission (DG-MOVE) in developing the work plan for the Atlantic Corridor, a diagonal corridor from Europe’s South-Western regions towards the centre of the EU that links the Iberian Peninsula ports of Algeciras, Sines, Lisboa, Leixões (Porto) and Bilbao through western France to Paris and Normandy and further east to Strasbourg and Mannheim. It covers rail, road, airports, ports, RRTs and the River Seine inland waterwayThe Atlantic Corridor has an important maritime dimension since it is linked to the crossroads of global maritime routes (via the Panama Canal and Straits of Gibraltar) notably toward North and South America, Neighbourhood countries and Africa; it is also endowed with high potential for deploying Motorways of the Sea and Short Sea Shipping as an alternative route to the inland backbone along the Atlantic coast."
