FANTASIE - Forecasting and Assessment of New Technologies and TrAnsport Systems and their Impact on the Environment

The FANTASIE project is a major EU research project looking at developments in transport technologies and the effects that these will have on Europe’s future transport systems. In addition, the project will look at how these technologies may influence, and be influenced by, the aims and related initiatives of the Union’s Common Transport Policy.

Freight transport in Europe: Policy issues and future scenarios on trans.border alpine connections

In particular, it deals with the Transalpine freight transport case, which represents one of the most challenging operational and policy issues of the present and future - both international (EU) and national (the Alpine countries) - freight transport developments
