NORDIM – Preparing The Northern Dimension Partnership On Transport and Logistics

NORDIM_1

Following the decision at the Summit in November 2006, the Northern Dimension spans a vast geographical area covering the northern EU Member states, Norway, Iceland, Northwest Russia, the Baltic Sea Region, Barents Region and the Arctic and offers a functioning platform for mutually beneficial cooperation across the region to address common challenges.

The objective of the Partnership is to work together to improve the major transport connections between the Northern Dimension partners to stimulate sustainable economic growth at the local/regional and global level by focusing on a limited number of priorities, accelerating the implementation of transport or logistics infrastructure projects, facilitating the approval of projects of mutual interest, accelerating the removal of non-infrastructure related bottlenecks.

TRT was responsible for updating the passenger demand forecasts and preparing the Guidebook illustrating the methodology for project evaluation and appraisal. The Guidebook covered economic, financial, environmental and social sustainability aspects, in support to the project identification and appraisal leading to the mobilisation of funding.
