TINA
The TINA process was launched in 1995, with the purpose of assessing the transportation needs in Eastern Europe, and based on this analysis to design a multimodal transportation network. The backbone of the network was formed by the ten Helsinki Corridors, and subsequently additional network components were proposed, analyzed, and added to the network.
The TINA network is similar conceptually to the TEN-Tr (Trans European Transportation Networks) in the EU countries. However, when designing the TINA network an important constraint was that for any given TINA country the cost of building the network should not be above 1.5% of the projected GDP of that country until 2015 (which is the time horizon for constructing the network).
Figure bellow presents the road and rail TINA networks, according to the 1999 Final Report.
