Abstract
The aim of the project is the enhancement of a greener, innovative and sustainable mobility through the
extension of the existing railway system with as little changes as possible and the development of new
modes of transport, providing a fast and seamless combination of rail and water transport, followed by
short distance travel to the final destination by motorized vehicles or bicycles. This would be achieved
through the extension in the Danube River Basin of the motorail system which allows the transport of cars,
motorbikes and small trailers, creating an efficient, seamless and low-carbon transport network, thus
contributing to the sustainable development of economic competitiveness and growth, of an integrated
European single market and of an open and inclusive society, of tourist accessibility to new countries.
