The EU's TEN-T Programme is to provide function of over US$1 million for development studies of the Austrian port of Linz, an important intersection of continuously increasing international freight flows between inland water, rail and road transport. The project aims to increase the port's capacity to receive larger inland water, rail and road transport flows.

The project features design studies for the expansion of the tri-modal terminal at the port to address its growing needs. It will deliver a master plan for port development, as well as detailed and executive designs to prepare the construction.
