  16. Ro – Pax /Ro-Ro Traffic

  17. Traffic Growth • the handling of containers with a throughput of around 80,000 TEU/year • predicted of over 550,000 TEU annually in 2030 • In the Balkan Region Export-Import from Port of Durres: • 10% to Macedonia • 52 % to Kosovo • 7 % to Serbia Rome, 15 July 2014

  18. 10 Pan European Corridors – Balkan Region Adriatic – Ionian Motorways Rome, 15 July 2014

  19. Maritime Corridors Connection with Road Transport Corridors in Albania • North-South, National Corridor: Montenegro – Greece • Durres – Kukes, Regional Corridor: Port of Durres – Kosova • East – West, Corridor VIII, Trans-Europian: Italy – Durres – Port of Vlora – the border with Macedonia and Greece • Coastal Touristic Roads or Blu Corridor : from Vlora to Saranda till Greek border Rome, 15 July 2014

  20. National Port Strategy The Albanian National Port Strategy defines the development of traditional ports converted into Green Ports –which will be environment oriented, social, tourist and people friendly centers in the coastal zones A. Transformation of the Four City Ports of Durres, Shengjin, Vlore and Saranda into Green Ports, enabling environmental friendly Tourism OrientedCities, with Ferry, Cruise Liner and Marina Facilities. B. Development of a New and Modern Designed Commercial Port at Porto Romano Bay, which will handle all Major Commercial Port Traffic in Albaniawith respect to Import/Export and Transit to Kosovo and Corridor VIII. C. Renovate and Bring to Full Capacity the Infrastructure in the North – South Corridor, from the border with Montenegro till Vlore, especially the Rail Road. Rome, 15 July 2014

  21. Perspectives - Targets • Improve legal framework on ports • Privatization of services (Concession and PPP) • Construct new terminals • The upgrade of equipments • Deepening the harbor and access channel • Rehabilitate railway and road connection & signaling • Increase the productivity of intermodal maritime transport services in the area in an intra-European and international scope Rome, 15 July 2014

  22. Benefits of AdriaticMoS Project implementation in Albania • Sustainable development Maritime transport and blue growth • Identification of bottlenecks and missing infrastructures in the intermodal network, nodes and border crossing to connect Albanian Ports with MOS to be realized in the future. • Identification and assesment of existing infrastructures capacities and efficasity of the Durres Port in Albanian hinterland connections with other infrastructures for intermodality. • Estimation of current export/import flow and forecast, identifying the barriers and drivers in the Albanian transport system as well as services and logisitcs missing. • Development of MoS in Albania is considered as one of the main altrenatives to shift the traffic from roads to maritime and rail transport for better operation of intermodality system in Albania. • Identification of missing investments, the period of time and finacing instruments to be completed for services and logisitcs to a better accessibility and operability of Albanian Ports and infrastructures. • Increase and enhancement of collboration relationships betwen Adriatic Sea countries in establishment of a common network interested for joint operations under the Adriatic MoS Master Plan. • Compilation of the final strategically document: Adriatic MoS Master Plan , with guidleines for Transport sector development in support of national strategy for overall transport sector development in Alabania. Rome, 15 July 2014

  23. Lessons learned – Tasks • to improve the maritime transport network by restoring / modernizing existing and developing suitable port infrastructure to cater for both passenger and freight transport demand, as well as by improving services to container transport • to improve quality and effectiveness of the Adriatic ports’ logistics services and transshipment capabilities in the creation of intermodal “interfaces”, such as logistics centers, dry ports, inland container terminals and freight villages • Adriatic ports must hence collaborate with their respective “physical” hinterlands to serve the logistics and commercial industries of their individual countries • development of ITS and technological evolution and present opportunities for significant growth advantages • the active participation of the countries of the Adriatic region in the development of the Trans- European, Trans-Mediterranean, and Euro-Asian transport links needs to be promoted, and efforts should be directed towards integrating their national transport networks with each programme’s identified routes and corridors The realization of an efficient transport network of the Adriatic ports primarily requires political will and commitment, since transport is a strategic responsibility of governments that can play a major role through the implementation of transport infrastructure together with the regulatory framework within which transport services can be developed.

  24. AIT – ANTP annual review Updated annually (2013) The National Transport Plan For the period January - June 2014, the Institute of Transport conducted ANTP update, according to data obtained from every sector, until 31/12/2013. INVESTMENTS IN THE TRANSPORT SECTOR Investments in the transport sector for 2013 are realized in the amount of 33.11 bilion ALL, where over 99% are invested in the road transport sector, and less than 1% are realized investments in three other sectors of transport, Maritime , Rail and Air.

  30. AIT – ANTP annual review Regarding road transport, legislative alignment with acquis in the field of activity allowing road transport operator and access to the road transport market, has not advanced. Adoption of new technical standards for road transport is still pending. There has been improvement in road safety; number of road accidents and deaths remain high, where pedestrians constitute the largest number of victims. Implementation of the National Strategy and Action Plan for Road Safety 2011-2020 is in the initial stage. In the field of railway transport, the railway network statement was finalized and published in March 2013. Railways new law has not been adopted, continues to work with the consultant. No progress has been made for the establishment of independent institutions railway infrastructure managers and railway operators. As regards air transport, further steps have been taken to meet the criteria of the first phase of the transitional agreement for the European Common Aviation Area. Bylaws were adopted aimed at further aligning with the acquis on air service operations, obligations of air carriers, hours of work for mobile workers in civil aviation and insurance regulations. A limited license to earth supermarket operations contributed somewhat to tariff liberalization airport, which nonetheless remain high. Legislation for the allocation of space in airports is not improved. In the field of maritime transport, in September, the new law was passed on the accession of Albania to the Protocol for the Preparation, Response and Cooperation to Pollution Incidents by Hazardous and Raw Harmful (OPRC-HNS). Albania still not participating in the Paris Memorandum of Understanding on Port State Control and remains on the black list of this organization. Little progress has been made ​​in transport policy. Further efforts on aligning legislation with the acquis and to strengthen administrative capacity in all modes of transport. Road safety remains a serious concern and must be addressed urgently. Capacity of air safety oversight has improved, but still depend increasingly on foreign experts. Overall, preparations in the field of transport have not advanced much. Rome, 15 July 2014
