The Atlantic Core Network Corridor or simply Atlantic Corridor is a European initiative developed from the Trans-European Transport Network to create a high capacity railway and road corridor connecting Portugal, Spain and France,[1] and later extended to Germany as well.[2] Said to be "fundamental for European cohesion",[3] this corridor includes the following sections:
- Algeciras – Bobadilla – Madrid
- Sines/Lisboa – Madrid – Valladolid
- Lisboa – Aveiro – Leixões/Porto
- Aveiro – Valladolid – Vitoria – Bergara – Bilbao/Bordeaux – Paris – Le Havre/Metz – Mannheim/Strasbourg
Status
Progress varies from country to country. In Portugal, for example, the planned railway infrastructures were included in the Ferrovia 2020 initiative, presented in 2016.[4] However, by the end of 2022, only 15% of the construction had been finished.[5]
