The results and recommendations of the MOSES project are expected to contribute
to the achievement of the following aspects of the European intermodal transport
network:
- Increase the interregional cargo volumes carried by sea by means of specific recommendations,
- Address the operational deficiencies of current intra-European LoLo services,
- Design RoRo services that will unlock the values that are contained within appropriate combinations
of ships, terminals, and infrastructures,
- Disaggregate the unnecessary separation of LoLo and RoRo at port terminals,
- Incorporate inter-continental LoLo services into European Motorways of the Sea,
- Ensure that Motorways of the Sea will be adequately supported by ICT structures and
capabilities,
- Develop the conditions that are required to establish efficient and sustainable regional hinterland
transfers of goods from sea to landside goods destinations,
- Set up a marketing strategy for intermodal and sea transport integration into the European sea
motorway network(s),
- Examine the pricing and financing considerations that will enable public and private
institutions to provide the necessary support for market based solutions to the provision
of European the sea motorway network (s),
- Deliver recommendations on the establishment of “intelligent standards and regulations” that assist
and do not hinder the efficient commercial development and operation of the Motorways of the
Seas,
- Advance European policies on sustainable mobility through the promotion of the Sea Motorways
