Motorways of the Sea - NGO Response to the Consultation Document

Thu, 30 Sep 2004 17:53:37 CET

Shifting freight from European roads to the sea could be a cure against congestion and the growing environmental impact of trans-European transports. But safety risks, operational pollution from ships and uncoordinated port investments endanger the potential benefits of short sea shipping. Sea Motorways pose the dual-risk of increasing negative impacts and concentrating them on these new routes.

In this response to the EU Consultation on Motorways of the Sea: Implementation through Article 12a TEN-T, European environmental NGOS joined in demanding that these new transport corridors be linked to environmental criteria.
