New European co-ordinators appointed to drive completion of Europe’s trans-European transport network

Nine European co-ordinators have been designated today to help complete the trans-European transport network (TEN-T), a vast infrastructure network of railways, roads, and inland waterways connecting the European Union. 

Seven co-ordinators will be in charge of seven out of the nine European Transport Corridors: Carlo Secchi for the Atlantic corridor; Anne Elisabet Jensen for the Baltic Sea–Adriatic Sea corridor; Mathieu Grosch for the Mediterranean corridor; Catherine Trautmann for the North Sea Baltic corridor; Paweł Wojciechowski for the North Sea–Rhine–Mediterranean corridor; Pat Cox for the Scandinavian–Mediterranean corridor; and Marian-Jean Marinescu for the Western Balkan–Eastern Mediterranean corridor.

Two co-ordinators in charge of related cross-cutting priorities have also been appointed. Matthias Ruete forthe European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS) and Gesine Meissner for the European Maritime Space (EMS).

All mandates are for four years, renewable, and start as of today. They will collaborate with member states, cities, regions, and infrastructure managers at local, regional, national, and European levels to facilitate work towards completing the TEN-T. 

As there are nine European Transport Corridors, two other TEN-T Coordinators will still have to be appointed for the remaining two European Transport Corridors. They will be in charge for the Baltic Sea-Black Sea-Aegean Sea corridor and the Rhine-Danube corridor and will be designated and appointed in early 2025.
