ALP-NET is a project funded by the European Commission to gather research on trans-Alpine transport and to facilitate the exchange of knowledge and views among policy makers, researchers, transport operators and NGOs.
During the official running time of the project from 2001 to 2003 seven expert workshops were organised. Thematically these workshops focused on the following four areas:
-
data, methods, models and GIS
-
the policy and decision-making context
-
intermodality and combined transport
-
pricing and financing of transport infrastructure
All papers presented at the workshops as well as summary reports can be downloaded directly from this homepage.
Furthermore ALP-NET created two on-line
databases; the first is an easily searchable address database containing the contact details for more than 500 relevant actors in the field of trans-Alpine transport (policy makers, researchers, transport operators, etc.). The second database contains the
abstracts of relevant research reports and information from where they can be obtained.
From the beginning of 2004 onwards only the ALP-NET homepage is being maintained to allow access to the results of the project and to facilitate networking among experts working on trans-Alpine transport.
