November 2022: Our President Dr Erich Forster attended a high level discussion about the trans-European transport network (TEN-T) regulation that took place in Innsbruck, Austria, together with the Presidents of the main European railway associations ERFA, CER, and UIRR. Present was also Dr Josef Doppelbauer, Executive Director of the EU Agency for Railways, and members of the Transport Comittee of the European Parliament.

There was clear agreement in the railway sector to support the TEN-T approach, to strengthen the role of EU and to make sure important parameters on corridors as 740m, P400 and ERTMS are therefore implemented consequently and on time. The whole discussion was organised by Barbara Thaler MEP.
