Core TEN-T infrastructure covering road, rail and sea transport, as well as multimodal and interoperable modes bringing high net benefits to society Core TEN-T railway infrastructure , secondary connectivity, upgrading of dense railway networks, ERTMS and other investments to improve interoperability and capacity building for planning, implementing and managing projects.
Actions
Core TEN-T railway infrastructure , secondary connectivity, upgrading of dense railway networks, ERTMS and other investments to improve interoperability and capacity building for planning, implementing and managing projects, and for risk and disaster management
Actions - innovative road pricing, user charging systems and traffic management, and in fuelling and charging infrastructure for new carbon-free vehicles for urban transport. integrated, sustainable and accessible urban mobility concepts in cities, city-regions and metropolitan areas, leading to reduced GHG emissions, in particular through sustainable urban transport plans, including facilitating use of public transport, cycling and walking.

The existence of a comprehensive plan(s) or framework(s) for transport investment in accordance with the MS institutional set-up (including public transport at regional and local level) which supports infrastructure development and improves connectivity to the TEN-T comprehensive and core networks. 2. Rail: - The existence within the comprehensive transport plan(s) or framework(s)of an explicit section on railway development in accordance with the MS institutional setup which supports infrastructure development and improves connectivity to the TEN-T comprehensive and core networks. The investments cover mobile assets, interoperability and capacity building.
longer process for design, planning and approval; they are technologically complex; and they also require a greater scale of investment, often along an entire route rather than over a short section.
through assessing all relevant modes for improving transport links through a corridor, taking into account demand patterns and existing services. High speed rail should only be supported with ERDF where it can be demonstrated that such lines encourage regional development beyond the main centres served.
- Rail Sector Planning and Implementation to be improved: The evaluation provided strong evidence that MS find it challenging to approve and implement rail projects. This seems to be an area where the EC needs to provide more support, for ex. bringing together EU expertise at a seminars and/or to encourage exchanges of experience between MS, exploiting examples of good practice. - EC could play a role in the process of identification of appropriate rail corridors for development across the EU, as well as the speed and type of those lines, including the appropriate development of high-speed lines.
