Discover the programme
The Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) for Transport helps build new or upgrade existing transport infrastructure across Europe. It focuses on cross-border projects and projects aiming at removing bottlenecks or bridging missing links.
CEF Transport also supports traffic management systems, innovation, reducing the environmental impact, enhancing energy efficiency and increasing safety of transport. High-power electricity recharging stations and hydrogen refuelling stations are being deployed through the alternative fuels infrastructure facility. Military mobility projects upgrade key transport infrastructure to make it fit for both civilian and defence purposes.
Through EU funded projects, CEF transport contributes to the completion of the core network and comprehensive network, which are policy objectives of the trans-European transport network (TEN-T).
