Policy change opens up EU funding for West Railway
Ministers responsible from the EU member states met on Monday, 15 December, to discuss, among other things, the Council’s position on the future CEF programme. As a result of the meeting, Finland saw a major positive development, as the Tallinn–Helsinki–Tampere and Helsinki–Turku–Stockholm connections were added to the list of CEF priorities. It is very important for transport projects to be included on the CEF list, as this gives them the opportunity to apply for EU funding.
