The European rail sector is brimming with major activities to improve infrastructure. The Fehmarnbelt tunnel in Denmark, the plans for high-speed rail in Poland and the Czech Republic, the multi-billion plans for network upgrades in Germany and France and work on the Brenner Base Tunnel in the Alps are a few examples of the ongoing projects. Where do we stand on these efforts and how will they contribute to streamlining the green transport of the future in Europe? During the conference of RailTech Europe '24 we will hear some of the latest updates on a handful of important European projects. What other themes and topics are on the agenda of the conference?

How best to realise faster, cleaner East-West connectivity? This was the central topic of yesterday's event 'Connecting the high-speed dots'. 🤝 Kindly hosted by MEP Ondřej Kovařík, the event organised with Správa železnic, state organization at the European Parliament in Strasbourg, highlighted the opportunities and challenges to enhance the East-West connectivity through the Trans-European high-speed rail network. 🚉 The event was an excellent opportunity to engage with rail infrastructure managers, gaining insights into their experiences in both the national and European contexts, as well as from representatives of the European Commission and Members of the European Parliament. 💡 Among the various ideas discussed, speakers and participants emphasized the importance of the Trans-European railway network, the key role of high-speed rail, the necessity for stable financing, the challenges associated with long-term costs, and the significance of considering the local dimension when addressing the best way to connect people. #CERevent #TEN_T #HighSpeedRail Jiří Svoboda Andrey Novakov Herald Ruijters Silvia Angelo PKP Polskie Linie Kolejowe S.A. #ŽSR DB Netz AG Zoltán Pafféri MÁV-csoport Alain Quinet SNCF Réseau Alberto Mazzola

On October 4th, 2023, the Europe’s Rail (EU-Rail) and SESAR 3 Joint Undertakings launched a call for proposals, worth a 7 million euros investment, co-funded within the Horizon Europe programme.

SPF Mobility and Transport, Technical feasibility study for Vision Rail 2040 in Belgium SMA has been commissioned by the Belgian Federal Public Service (SPF) Mobility and Transport to study scenarios for rail services and operations in Belgium up to 2040, based on the principles for developing services defined in the federal government's Vision Rail 2040. The study will help to define - on the basis of different variants and in collaboration with Infrabel and SNCB - the outlook for the development of the national rail network. The result will provide a future transportation plan that quantifies the potential for journey times, service frequencies and interchange stations as well as the associated investment costs and the impact on the modal split of rail (assessments in collaboration with partners).
