| Objectives |
Transport in the Alpine regions of Central and Western Europe is politically a most sensitive subject. It has been a source of debates and uneasiness in bilateral and multilateral relations among countries and has led to widespread resistance against EU transport policy amongst the population in the transversed regions. Not surprisingly, trans-Alpine transport is a focal point for research both at the European and national levels. In view of important upcoming policy decisions, it is important to synthesise, concert and co-ordinate ongoing-work and to deliberate open questions. This is the role of ALP-NET. |
