(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2024/1679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 June 2024 on Union guidelines for the development of the trans-European transport network, amending Regulations (EU) 2021/1153 and (EU) No 913/2010 and repealing Regulation (EU) No 1315/2013 (1), and in particular Article 52(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) European Transport Corridors as instruments to facilitate the coordinated implementation of the core and extended core network are provided for in Chapter V of Regulation (EU) 2024/1679 and listed in Article 11(1) of that Regulation.
(2) Pursuant to Article 52 of Regulation (EU) 2024/1679, European Coordinators are designated to facilitate the coordinated implementation of the European Transport Corridors, European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS) and European Maritime Space (EMS).
(3) The role of European Coordinators is of major importance for the development of, and cooperation along, the European Transport Corridors.
(4) In order to ensure the implementation of the European Transport Corridors, the European Coordinators, in agreement with the Member State concerned, should facilitate discussions aimed at the completion of Corridors and identify the sources of financing, both private and public, for complex cross-border projects, missing links and bottleneck sections, as well as for interoperability and inter-modality issues.
(5) In order to ensure the implementation of the horizontal priorities, the European Coordinators for ERTMS and EMS should, in dialogue with Member States concerned develop a coordinated approach for the development of horizontal priorities with a particular focus on close interaction with the European Transport Corridors as well as core and extended core networks.
(6) In order to ensure the impartiality and independence of the European Coordinator, the latter should not be a national of a Member State concerned by the European Transport Corridor assigned to him or her.
(7) In order to develop their tasks, the European Coordinators should be granted a monthly flat-rate allowance to cover the secretarial expenses that cannot be delivered directly by the Commission services and be reimbursed for mission expenses in accordance with the Commission rules.
(8) It is appropriate to designate 9 European Coordinators, one for each European Transport Corridor, one for ERTMS, one for EMS, except for the Baltic Sea – Black Sea – Aegean Sea Corridor, because no agreement was found by Member States in the context of consultation on the appropriate candidate and for the Rhine-Danube Corridor, because the proposed Coordinator passed away on 25 July 2024. Coordinators for these two European Transport Corridors should be designated at a later stage.
(9) In accordance with Article 52(1) of Regulation (EU) 2024/1679, Member States, third countries, which are part of the European Transport Corridors and of the horizontal priorities, the European Parliament and the Council were consulted. The Member States concerned have expressed their agreement to the designation of the European Coordinators, the European Parliament issued the positive opinion in April 2024 and the Council, in July 2024.
(10) The posts of Coordinators are currently vacant, it is therefore urgent to appoint them. For this reason, the decision should enter into force on the day following its publication,

ANNEX II

Mandate letter for the European Coordinator for the North Sea-Baltic European Transport Corridor

Regulation (EU) 2024/1679 of the European Parliament and of the Council (1) on Union guidelines for the development of the trans-European transport network provides for the appointment of European Coordinators responsible for the implementation of the European Transport Corridors and horizontal priorities: the European Maritime Space and the European Railway Traffic Management System (ERTMS).
The corridor approach allows an efficient cooperation between key actors in the management of both cross-border and national projects with a European relevance located on the corridor. The European Transport Corridors encompass all transport modes, aiming for wide-scale efficiency of the European transport system. Therefore, deploying the European Transport Corridors contributes strongly to reaching the Union’s political goals of the sustainable transport transition and strengthening the European economy.
You have accepted responsibility as the Coordinator for the North Sea – Baltic European Transport Corridor. This corridor stretches from the North Sea ports in Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany to Poland. From there, it continues north through Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia to Helsinki and Oulu in Finland and Luleå in Sweden. To the south, the corridor extends from Warsaw via Lublin to Kyiv and from Katowice via Lviv to Kyiv and Mariupol in Ukraine. It covers rail, road, airports, ports, multimodal freight terminals, inland waterway and the European Maritime Space links. One of the biggest projects is Rail Baltica, a European standard gauge railway line to be built between Warsaw and Tallinn, connecting Riga and Vilnius.
The Commission is convinced that your support, on which it is counting enormously, will be crucial for the continued success of the European Transport Corridors and horizontal priorities.

Mission

The work of the European Coordinator aims to advance the overall development of the corridor through targeted coordination activities, notably in relation to project investment (synchronisation of works, allocation of national and Union funding) and, as appropriate, other specific actions to promote a competitive and resource efficient transport system. For this purpose, the Coordinator shall facilitate cooperation between the Member States concerned, guide the involvement of relevant stakeholders within the Corridor Forum as well as support the preparation and implementation of Commission implementing acts referred to in Article 55 of Regulation (EU) 2024/1679, on the basis of corridor work plans referred to in Article 54 of that Regulation.
Your duties, which stem from those laid down in Article 52(5), (6) and (7) of Regulation (EU) 2024/1679 will include:

Mandate letter for the European Coordinator for the Mediterranean European Transport Corridor

Regulation (EU) 2024/1679 of the European Parliament and of the Council (9) on Union guidelines for the development of the trans-European transport network provides for the appointment of European Coordinators responsible for the implementation of the European Transport Corridors and horizontal priorities: the European Maritime Space and the European Railway Traffic Management System (ERTMS).
The corridor approach allows an efficient cooperation between key actors in the management of both cross-border and national projects with a European relevance located on the corridor. The European Transport Corridors encompass all transport modes, aiming for wide-scale efficiency of the European transport system. Therefore, deploying the European Transport Corridors contributes strongly to reaching the Union’s political goals of the sustainable transport transition and strengthening the European economy.
You have accepted responsibility as the Coordinator for the Mediterranean European Transport Corridor. This corridor links the Spanish ports of Algeciras, Cartagena, Valencia, Castellὀn, Tarragona and Barcelona with Madrid and along the Mediterranean coastline through southern France- Marseille and Nice until Italy, Genoa and La Spezia. It traverses from Marseille towards Lyon across the Alpes and northern Italy via Turin, Milan, Verona, Bologna, Padova, Venice and Trieste. It links also with Ljubljana and a branch via Croatia (Rijeka, Zagreb), to Budapest and to Lviv in Ukraine. It covers rail and road, airports, ports, multimodal freigth terminals and, in Northern Italy, also the Po river inland waterway. The key projects are the gauge change to International Union of Railways (UIC) standard in Spain, the Lyon – Turin base railway tunnel and the overall modernisation of railways infrastructure in the eastern part of the corridor.

Mandate letter for the European Coordinator for the European Maritime Space

Regulation (EU) 2024/1679 of the European Parliament and of the Council (17) on Union guidelines for the development of the trans-European transport network provides for the appointment of European Coordinators responsible for the implementation of the European Transport Corridors and horizontal priorities: the European Maritime Space and the European Railway Traffic Management System (ERTMS).
You have accepted responsibility as the Coordinator for the European Maritime Space. This horizontal priority focuses on the deployment of a truly sustainable, smart, seamless and resilient European Maritime Space that can be fully integrated into a door-to-door transport chain on the trans-European transport network.
The Commission is convinced that your support, on which it is counting enormously, will be crucial for the continued success of the European Transport Corridors and horizontal priorities.

— regular consultation of all the Member States and stakeholders concerned in order to identify all factors relating to the development of the European Maritime Space, the possibilities for funding the investments deemed to be necessary and the means of gaining access to such funding. This includes the establishment and chairing of a dedicated consultative European Martime Forum, in accordance with Article 53(2) of the Regulation (EU) 2024/1679 and whenever necessary, the setting of ad-hoc working groups within that forum;
— cooperating with the European Maritime Safety Agency;
