FEPORT urges increase in EU transport budget

The Federation of European Private Port Operators (FEPORT) has joined 28 EU transport associations calling for the European Parliament and the Council to increase the EU budget for transport.

Together with its fellow EU transport associations, FEPORT urged an increase in the budget for the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF), which supports trans-European networks and infrastructures in sectors including transport, in the upcoming review of the Multi-Annual Financial Framework (MFF).

According to the federation, it is “crucial to continue to invest in the completion of the Trans-European Network for Transport (TEN-T)”, a programme aiming to carry out investments targeted at facilitating the mobility of goods and passengers within the EU.
