 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
PP18 crosses Europe transversally from the North Sea at Rotterdam to the Black Sea in Romania. The Meuse and the Rhine rivers are the entrance gates for the Belgian and Dutch inland waterways to this Priority Project corridor, linking the northern ports of Rotterdam and Antwerp but also offering a connection towards the Seine-Northern Europe Canal, part of PP30. The Rhine river, through the Main river and the Main-Danube Canal, is connected to the Danube river that flows until the Black Sea. This corridor is one of the longest ones in the Trans-European Transport Network and crosses both EU countries and non-Member States.
In recognition of the complexity and multifaceted aspects presented by this project and of PP30, Inland Waterway Seine-Scheldt, Mrs Karla Peijs was appointed European Coordinator for Inland Waterways by the European Commission in September 2007. |
