Corridor and Territorial Policies

The book, edited by AF, is a selection and a collection of materials from a research co-ordinated by the author under the cover of a European Project (the AlpenCorS Project that stands for the Alpen Corridor South). The project focuses on the socio-economic and territorial nature of the Corridor through a trans-national geographical area defined by the Community with a TEN (Trans Europe Network). The aim of the project was to gain a better understanding of the multifaceted relationship between socio-economic features and the territory from five points of view: - economic growth and the development of transport; - transports – focussing on the criticalities and how mobility demand and supply play out, - methods and technology with a special focus on ITS-ITC, - logistics, focussing on inter-modal features and - territorial features, focussing on the relationship between infrastructural and territorial policies, regionally and in large urban nodes.
