Welcome to the CETMO, the website of the Centre for Transportation Studies for the Western Mediterranean (CETMO).
The CETMO's main goal is to contribute towards improving transport conditions in the countries of Southern Europe (France, Italy, Malta, Portugal, and Spain) and the Maghreb (Algeria, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco and Tunisia) by studying transport infrastructure, flows, statistics and legislation in the Western Mediterranean, and by developing initiatives that facilitate this transport. One of the CETMO's specific objectives is to study and disseminate information about the technological and logistics trends that affect the strategic situation and competitiveness of the transport industry in the countries in this region.
On this page you will find full information on the transport industry in the Western Mediterranean and all the latest news on cooperation and the initiatives being implemented in the region.

Data Update of the REG-MED Network
Following the 2009-2011 Work Program of the GTMO 5+5, CETMO has released the Summary of the Updated Results of the REG-MED Network (2010 data), in French and in English, which monitors and updates of the areas analyzed in 2004, during the REG-MED initiative. The main objective of this initiative was to analyse and discuss in depth the issues that affected the facilitation of international transport of goods in the Mediterranean, and particularly, to examine the cases of Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia. The current document includes, as well as the diagnosis of current situation in these three countries, the case of Libya and Mauritania (new members of GTMO 5+5 from 2007).
The areas examined include the different factors that limit the fluidity of maritime transport, port transit, land transport and multimodal transport, together with the measures applied that have helped facilitate international goods flows and the planned measures along the same aim.
