Part of TEN-T Core Network

The goal of the TEN-T network is a safe and sustainable EU transport system that promotes the seamless movement of goods and people. The TEN-T core network focuses on the most important connections and hubs. The implementation of the core network is advanced by a corridor-based approach.

There are nine core network corridors of which Scandinavian-Mediterranean and North Sea-Baltic corridors extend to southern Finland.
European standard main link to Russia goes through Vaalimaa (road) and Vainikkala (rail).
