Project
Climate resilient and environmentally sustainable transport infrastructure, with a focus on inland waterways (CRISTAL).
It is the key objective of the project CRISTAL (36 months) to increase the share of freight transport on inland water transport (IWT) by a
minimum of 20% and to demonstrate on its three pilot sites (Italy, Poland and France) strategies to improve reliability by 80%. CRISTAL
project will assure IWT capacity at 50% even during extreme weather events. Towards that CRISTAL will co-create, test and implement
integrated, cooperative and innovative solutions in its three pilot partners' areas identified in Italy, France and Poland. The project
will include the aspects of technological innovation/development and digitalization; further advancement towards the Physical Internet,
governance solution and business models, will be proposed while targeting sustainability and infrastructure resilience requirements.
