View answerIn April 2019, the European Commission commenced the review of the TEN-T network with an evaluation of the existing TEN-T Regulation (EU) No 1315/2013. This review looked at TEN-T policy and methodology in the context of developments in the transport sector, digitalisation, climate and resilience.
No projects were submitted in the TEN-T review as this was a consultative process. However, my Department participated fully in this review and raised a number of issues with the Commission related to ports, road and rail infrastructure in Ireland.
The Commission published the results of this review in May 2021 and the report is available at the following link:
