B2MoS Kick-Off
The official Kick-Off Meeting of the B2MoS (Business to Motorways of the Sea) project took place in Valencia, Spain last month, hosted by the Valenciaport Foundation and the Port Authority of Valencia.
Representatives from major public and private companies in the six countries (Spain, Italy, Slovenia, Greece, Germany and the United Kingdom) participated.
The B2MOS project aims to boost the ability of short sea shipping to compete on more door to door corridors and facilitate the development of a TEN-T Motorways of the Sea network connecting Europe, bridging the gaps between TEN-T corridors and revitalising peripheral regions.
It is co-financed by the Trans-European Transport Network programme. The project is contributing to establishing a European maritime space without barriers by facilitating and simplifying compliance with regulations and by promoting intermodal sustainable transport solutions that reinforce the Motorways of the Sea (MoS) strategy and that take full advantage of existing port facilities and short sea capacities.
