Transportation
Programme Overview
The geographic dispersion of the Member States of the Caribbean Community requires the adoption of a robust approach for reliable and efficient transportation. The importance of transportation to regional integration, particularly the movement of people and goods, is outlined in the Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas which provides for, inter alia, the establishment of a regional transport policy to provide adequate, safe and internationally competitive transport services for the development and consolidation of the CARICOM Single Market and Economy (CSME), intra-Community transport services; aircraft accident and incident investigation; search and rescue; development of maritime and air transport services.
Strategic Objectives
To improve regional connectivity and reduce the cost of maritime and air transport.
Strategic Outcome
A safe, resource-efficient, seamless, competitive and adequate multi-modal transportation infrastructure and services, within the Community and its trading partners for the movement of goods and people.
