Facing the various challenges generated by the technological, economical and regulatory changes, the Port Authorities are becoming an active and cohesive part of the superior level institutions trying to be pioneers in the Euro-Mediterranean area as regards the implementation of the Community directives.

Specifically the objectives of ARGES are:

• Enhancing accessibility and mobility of passengers and freight using a common transnational information system.
• Reorganization of the transport services throughout the existing networks so as to reduce the traffic peaks, monitoring traffic conditions.
• Harmonization of information and data exchange among institutions in order to guarantee a higher level of security.
• Supply of tools for optimizing the management and use of the “long distance” and the so-called “last mile” itineraries.
