Railway axis Stockholm-Malmö-Copenhagen-Hamburg-Innsbruck-Verona-Palermo (Rail freight corridor No 3) (ScanMed Corridor)
End date: Dec 30, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The Scandinavian-Mediterranean Corridor is a crucial north-south axis for the European economy. Crossing the Baltic Sea from Finland to Sweden and passing through Germany, the Alps and Italy, it links the major urban centres and ports of Scandinavia and Northern Germany to continue to the industrialised high production centres of Southern Germany, Austria and Northern Italy further to the Italian ports and Valletta. The most important projects in this corridor are the fixed Fehmarnbelt crossing and Brenner base tunnel, including their access routes. It extends, across the sea, from Southern Italy and Sicily to Malta. Achievements: The corridor and the infrastructure components belonging to it could finally be defined. Relevant information required by the TENtec Information System of the European Commission could be gathered to a large extent and finally integrated into the TENtec Information System. After passing the inbuilt validation process the data was validated by end of August 2014 so that the task is completed. Stakeholders fulfilling the criteria set by the Regulation (EU) 1315/2013 were identified with their contact details, included in a database and selected for respective Corridor Forum meetings invitations after the approval of the Commission and the Member States, respectively. The draft report TEN-T Core Network Corridors: Scandinavian-Mediterranean Corridor is available underhttp://ec.europa.eu/transport/themes/infrastructure/ten-t-guidelines/doc/scanmed_draft_final_report_version_2014-11-07.pdf
