The main goal of the project was the development of a common approach for transport infrastructure in the MEDA area and its contribution to a better integration of transport networks in the Mediterranean area, within the policy context of the Barcelona Process of the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership. MEDA TEN-T objectives concentrate on the improvement of the transport operations with special focus on Mediterranean interoperability, the analysis of the strategic planning process both at national and international level to end up with a proposal of action plan to improve decision making process at European and Mediterranean scale. Over the past two years MEDA TEN-T has succeeded, through the excellent co-operation of the partners amongst the consortium, in implementing the following objectives: • The production of a panorama of the Transport Infrastructure and Services System in the Mediterranean with emphasis on the integrated transport infrastructures development in the Mediterranean region; • The improvement of interconnectivity and interoperability between the Mediterranean countries and between the Mediterranean and the rest of the EU, in order to facilitate interaction and networking towards the establishment of a Euro-Mediterranean Free Trade Area; • The extension of the TEN-T network to MEDA countries through the enhancement of maritime connections – and, in particular, the introduction of sea-motorways – and the integration of the air network. These issues have been addressed considering the specificities of the Mediterranean countries involved in MEDA TEN-T: • The specificity of the Mediterranean transport system, particularly with regard to the intermodal transport chain including maritime and air transport • The exploitation of existing Mediterranean and European expertise in decision-making for the planning of transport infrastructure and the development of strategies for achieving integrated infrastructure planning and interoperability of transport systems in the Mediterranean region and between the EU and the Mediterranean

C. Agarana, T. A. Anake, H. I.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Rail systems are gradually becoming the most desirable form of transit infrastructure around the world, partly because they are becoming more environmentally friendly compared with airplanes and automobiles. This paper examines the place of emerging countries in this move of imple- menting modern rail system that will eventually enhance the realization of a low-carbon society. Network model, transportation model and linear programming algorithms are used to model the present urban rail transport system in Nigeria, as an emerging country, in order to optimize it. Operational research methods, including simplex method and MODI, with the aids of computer software (excel solver and LIP solver) were adopted to solve the resulting models. The results showed that optimization of rail transport system will not only reduce carbon emission but also bring about economic development which is required for the eradication of prevalent poverty in these emerging countries.

  • Water Erosion on Marl Slopes and Prevention of Its Effects Using Conservation of Water and Soil Systems in the Isser Wadi Watershed (Tlemcen, Algeria) M
    Water erosion on marl slopes and prevention of its effects using Conservation of Water and Soil systems in the Isser Wadi watershed (Tlemcen, Algeria) M. Zobiri1, M. Mazour2 and B. Morsli3 1University of Tlemcen, [email protected] 2University Center of Aïn Témouchent, Algeria, [email protected] 3National Institute of Forest Research, Algeria, [email protected] ABSTRACT Water erosion remains a major concern on the marly slopes. Where erosive processes continue to increase and continue to pose serious problems and where knowledge is still insufficient on erodibility and its evolution and on solutions to soil erosion problems. The aim of this work is to contribute to the understanding of the functioning of soils on marl substrate in relation to erosion and to evaluate the effectiveness of the anti-erosion measures used in this type of environment.The Isser watershed,where several anti-erosion techniques were used, is the subject of this study. The analysis of the anti-erosion installations shows that most of the developments have been made according to standards and have worked well. But their effectiveness is different from one technique to another. The earthen thresholds seem to be the most suitable and the most effective. The effectiveness of earthen structures is summed up in stability, durability, cost-effectiveness, sediment storage, flood plating and water storage for a significant length of time, and had a positive impact on reducing erosion and the silting rate of the dam. The gabion thresholds also have a better stability and a good seating, but they are very sensitive and can undergo damage that reduces their effectiveness with regard to erosion.

  • Assessing the Impact of Infrastructure Quality on Firm Productivity In
    Working Paper 09-86 Departamento de Economía Economic Series (49) Universidad Carlos III de Madrid November 2009 Calle Madrid, 126 28903 Getafe (Spain) Fax (34) 916249875 Assessing the Impact of Infrastructure Quality on Firm Productivity in Africa* Cross‐Country Comparisons Based on Investment Climate Surveys from 1999 to 2005 by Alvaro Escribano, † J. Luis Guasch‡ and Jorge Pena§ Abstract This paper provides a systematic, empirical assessment of the impact of infrastructure quality on the total factor productivity (TFP) of African manufacturing firms. This measure is understood to include quality in the provision of customs clearance, energy, water, sanitation, transportation, telecommunications, and information and communications technology (ICT). We apply microeconometric techniques to investment climate surveys (ICSs) of 26 African countries carried out in different years during the period 2002–6, making country‐specific evaluations of the impact of investment climate (IC) quality on aggregate TFP, average TFP, and allocative efficiency. For each country we evaluated this impact based on 10 different productivity measures. Results are robust once we control for observable fixed effects (red tape, corruption and crime, finance, innovation and labor skills, etc.) obtained from the ICSs. We ranked African countries according to several indices: per * This study is part of the Africa Infrastructure Country Diagnostic (AICD), a project designed to expand the world’s knowledge of physical infrastructure in Africa. Financing for AICD is provided by a multi-donor trust fund to which the main contributors are the Department for International Development (United Kingdom), the Public Private Infrastructure Advisory Facility, Agence Française de Développement, and the European Commission.

  • Reference Signing of Japanese ODA Loan with the Republic of Tunisia
    February 17, 2012 Signing of Japanese ODA Loan with the Republic of Tunisia –First post-revolution Japanese ODA loan, toward regional disparity correction and creation of employment– 1. On February 17, the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) signed an Japanese ODA loan agreement with the Société Tunisie Autoroutes (STA) to provide a of up to 15.084 billion yen for assistance for the Gabes-Medenine Trans-Maghrebin Corridor Construction Project and with the Société Nationale d'Exploitation et de Distribution des Eaux (SONEDE) to provide a Japanese ODA loan of up to 6.094 billion yen for the Local Cities Water Supply Network Improvement Project. 2. Based on the 11th Five-Year Socioeconomic Development Plan (2007 to 2011), Tunisia is aiming for increased per capita income and a lower unemployment rate, an improved Human Development Index, assistance for the middle class and a reduction in poverty as a governmental development strategy. They have taken measures to increase employment, expand investment and assist business start-ups, strengthen competition and develop balanced economic development. After the revolution of January 2011, the Tunisian Constituent Assembly election was held in October of the same year. The new government was launched in December of that year, and is now adressing important issues such as correcting regional income disparities, creating employment and expanding investment. Signing ceremony These Japanese ODA loans are the first signed for Tunisia since the January 2011 revolution. 3. The Japanese ODA loans provided by the agreements are described below. (1) Gabes-Medenine Trans-Maghrebin Corridor Construction Project Conceptualization of building a trans-Maghreb road (between Cairo and Agadir) began in 1995, and the nations it will pass through— Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia— have been moving forward with preparation work.
