Current TSI priorities include the Baltic-Adriatic Transport Corridor, the Via Carpatia and Via Baltica roads, Rail Baltica and Amber Rail Freight Corridor rail connections, local governments\u2019 initiatives, such as the Central European Transport Corridor, as well as the North-South Gas Corridor.
