Proposal for a regulation
Recital 14 a (new)

(14a) In order for infrastructure projects to be carried out and for a success to be made of them, it is of immense importance to foster general acceptance on the part of local residents. The interests of regional and local authorities as well as of local civil society affected by a project of common interest should be appropriately taken into account in the planning and construction phases of a project.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 25 a (new)

(25a) The core network has been identified on the basis of an objective planning methodology. This methodology has identified the most important urban nodes, ports, airports and border crossing points. These nodes are connected with multimodal links, wherever possible, and are economically viable, environmentally sustainable and feasible until 2030. The methodology has ensured the connection of all Member States and the integration of the main islands into the core network. Detours are justified in order to circumvent unavoidable obstacles or ecologically sensitive areas or else to link smaller towns, airports, terminals, etc., so long as the disadvantages arising from these detours do not exceed the benefits in terms of improved regional or local accessibility. Traffic flows should be combined wherever possible, taking due account of topographical features, environmental impact, user requirements and potential capacity bottlenecks.
