The relevance of the Adriatic Ionian Maritime Corridor: EU and international value, Freight and Passenger Traffic The main flows of cargo RO-RO units in the ports of Adriatic-Ionian Region Source: Eurostat (2016), AAGR Average Annual Growth Rate (AAGR) The Adriatic-Ionian Corridor is amongst the most utilized ones within the MED (around 10, 2 Mil. tonnes of Ro-Ro traffic) with important improvement margins in terms of capacity and frequency 7

3. ADRI UP Action: Objectives and consortium General Objective: Development and upgrading of the Mo. S corridor in the Eastern Mediterranean Area, specifically of the Mo. S link Trieste-Ancona-Igoumenitsa, by boosting port’s and RRT’s infrastructures in Trieste, Fernetti, Ancona and Igoumenitsa. The Action will contribute to the integration of the Mo. S corridor in the freight supply chains, increasing EU trade competitiveness in the South Mediterranean area, through the connection of 4 TEN-T Core Network Corridors. SCANMED BAC ORIENTEAST MED 8

4. ADRI UP Action: Activities Activity 1 • Construction of Igoumenitsa Freight Village (IFV) Activity 2 • Construction of road link between the IFV and Egnatia Odos highway Activity 3 • Studies for the upgrading of railway infrastructure in the Port of Ancona Activity 4 • Technical and environmental studies for the new RO/PAX terminal of the Port of Ancona Activity 5 • Functional and technical restructuring of Pier VI in the Port of Trieste Activity 6 • Integration of the maritime link in the Baltic-Adriatic & Mediterranean Corridors in the dryport of Fernetti Activity 7 • Project Management & Dissemination 11

4. ADRI UP Action: Activities Activity 1 Construction of Igoumenitsa Freight Village The aim of this activity 1 is the construction of the Igoumenitsa Freight Village (IFV), located in Grika (part of the hinterland area of the Igoumenitsa port), 17 km away from the port of Igoumenitsa, adjacent to the Thesprotia Industrial Park (BIOPATHE). The main characteristics of the Freight Village are: Ø Distance to the Igoumenitsa Port: 17 km Ø Total area: 54. 7 ha (547 Km 2) Ø Public services complex: 0. 48 ha (4. 8 Km 2) Ø Area dedicated to warehouses: 17. 6 ha (176 Km 2) 12

4. ADRI UP Action: Activities The aim of activity 2 is to upgrade the connexion between the Freight Village and the Egnatia-Odos axis. The construction works will focus on the links Activity 2 Construction of Road Link between IFV & Egnatia connecting the IFV with Egnatia Motorway. It will include the following elements: Ø Re-construction of the motorway intersection with the local road network; Ø Widening of traffic lanes; Ø Level intersections will be constructed at the local network to facilitate the traffic flows towards/from the freight village. 14

4. ADRI UP Action: Activities Activity 3 Studies for the upgrading of railway infrastructures in the Port of Ancona will develop the intermediate and final designs of the works for upgrading the existing railway infrastructure inside the port commercial terminal. The five railway tracks will be extended from 260 -300 m to 550 m. The studies cover the following elements: Ø Extension of railway tracks to 550 m. The railway terminal is currently located in the area dedicated to temporary storage of containers and to the loading/unloading operations; Ø Redesign of the existing road infrastructure. Currently 700 m long, the road network will be adapted to the new terminal layout and high volume of vehicles; Ø Replacement of the customs entrance to allow the extension of the railway tracks. Ø Reorganization of the container yard to allow the extension of the railway tracks. The storage areas will be reorganized but it is not expected a reduction of the available space. 16

4. ADRI UP Action: Activities A fundamental Institutional Initiative and amplifying tool in which ADRI UP Project has been presented and elevated as best practice in the Region, in terms of cross border Mo. S links and in terms of improvement of the accessibility and connectivity in ports and between ports and hinterland: Activity 7 Project management and dissemination The EU Strategy for the Adriatic and Ionian Region (EUSAIR) In particular, the “PILLAR 2: Connecting the Region”, coordinated by Italy (Focal Point RAM) and Serbia, focuses on 3 topics: 1)Maritime Transport 2)Intermodal connections to the hinterland 3)Energy Networks 26

4. Conclusion Will contribute to foster the Mo. S concept as i) mean of connection among MED, BAC, SCAN-MED and Orient-East Med CNC’s; ii) mean of efficient and intermodal connection of the ports with their hinterland areas; iii) sustainable mode of transport promoting modal shift; Will ensure project visibility, and compliance with the priorities stated in the II° Pillar of the Mo. S DIP and in the framework of the EU Strategy for Adriatic Ionian Region (EUSAIR) Will highlight the key role of CEF Transport contribution to the port’s accessibility improvement as well as to the enhancement of the trade competitiveness in the Adriatic. Ionian intermodal corridor, creating investment opportunities in the involved areas Will enhance the private logistic operators business, mostly of them already included as supporting partners of the Action 27
