A co-ordination meeting was held in Brussels on 22 June 2005 on the Brenner base tunnel. The Brenner base tunnel is a transalpine tunnel which was to connect Austria and Italy and allow for a substantial increase in transalpine freight traffic by rail. The meeting with all parties involved allowed to measure the positive results achieved so far and the remaining works to be done in order to finalise the project by 2006 and decide upon launching the construction phase.
