CUPT as an Intermediate Body in the Infrastructure and Environment Programme

In the years 2014-2020, the CEUTP (acting as an Intermediate Body) is responsible for the implementation of the OPI&E in the field of transport projects . Having gained experience from the implementation of the OPI&E in the previous programming period (2007-2013), the CEUTP fully supports the Beneficiaries in the process of preparation and implementation of investment projects in order to make the most effective use of EU funds allocated for spending under the Multiannual Financial Framework 2014-2020.
