One of Europe’s strengths is its highly efficient road systems
The continuous improvement of this infrastructure is essential to maintain economic growth and facilitate the free movement of goods, services and people throughout the European Union.
Trans-European Networks, or TENs for short, are a contribution of the European Union to better networking in the internal market, to the standardisation of transport systems, and to the improvement of the energy and telecommunications infrastructure.
