IS THE PROJECT PROMOTING/ IMPLEMENTING GREEN TECHNOLOGIES?
IF YES – HOW/ WHAT KIND?
Awareness Workshops and Brokerage Events have proven effective in introducing participants to green maritime
and intermodal transport technologies. Such was the case with the ships construction and maintenance too and
particular attention was paid to maritime and transport safety and security. Since traffic congestion throughout
European road network should be reduced by freight shift to the water and multimodal transport, water transport
should be adequately improved and strengthened, and the realization of this task requires a better knowledge. And
that was just the core of the EUROMAR-BRIDGES project.
