3 The Reason Why Increasing international rail freight s attractiveness and market share HOW Active cooperation among Member States Infrastructure Managers Allocation Bodies To the benefit of the customers

4 Types of Corridors 6 ERTMS Corridors ETCS and GSM-R 9 Rail Freight Corridors 3 to be implemented in 2015 Green Corridors Supporting green logistics and technology 9 CN Corridors Technical and financial implementation of large projects 3 Modes of transport 3 Member States 2 National borders

5 Three-Pole Approach ERTMS Corridor B one string Stockholm-Napoli Rail Freight Corridor different routes between nodes Stockholm-Palermo Forming the rail freight backbone of: CNC Corridor multimodal Helsingfors-Valetta

9 Rail Freight Regulation European Rail Network for competitive Freight Mission of the Executive Board - Defining General Objectives - Defining Framework for Capacity Allocation - Supervising progress on freight regulation - Approving Implementation Plan

10 Transport Market Study and Implementation Plan Two planning instruments TMS is finalised and is a basis for the present work IP will be the main document we deliver Selected results from the TMS

11 Forecasts and Volumes to 2017 Additional Trains expected

12 Enhancement measure Improvements recommended Longer trains 43 (16%) Better intermodality 39 (15%) Better overall availability 36 (14%) Lower prices 36 (14%) More flexible opening hours 28 (11%) Heavier trains 28 (11%) Longer opening hours 23 (9%) Higher speeds 19 (7%) No of mentions (% of mentions)

18 General Objectives Decided in mutual consent A well performing competitive corridor with seamless service and end to end control of train movements and wagons Quality - Service planning with expedient service to applicants - Traffic management to ensure operation in line with timetable - User-friendly customer IT interfaces to allow end to end control Capacity - Supply of high quality train paths in line with market demand - Good interoperability and operational compatibilityto increase commercial speed, pay-load and efficiency - Systematic mitigation of bottlenecks, in particular at national and system borders Availability - Planned capacity available to applicants/users - Systematic contingency handling of recurrent causes for delays - Alligned business concept with terminals

19 Framework of Capacity Allocation Decided in mutual consent One-stop-shop will receive pre-arranged train paths and reserve capacity For freight trains crossing at least one border The Implementation Plan will define the routes The capacity is taken from the national capacity for freight traffic When applications conflict, longer and frequently used paths will gain priority Control will be exercised by Regulatory Bodies

20 Implementation Plan Extensive document A process towards approval Mapping of bottlenecks Elements from Transport Market Study Objectives and performance Quality of service and capacity Investment plan (indicative) Measures to implement Two meetings are planned for finalising the plan

21 Our Big Brother The Multimodal Scandinavian-Mediterranean Corridor Work Plan of the European Coordinator Main conclusions on the railway: - Low rate of ETCS implementation (DE, SE, IT) - Freight trains shorter than 740 m (SE, IT) - Bottlenecks (DK, SE, DE, IT) - Need for cross-border dialogues We paved the way

22 Estimation on increased freight The Commission s Work Plan Between 2005 and 2050: Rail freight increases with 80% Passenger transport by rail increases with 51% Rail is the backbone of Trans-European Transport Network

23 Future Operation 10 November 2015 Implementation done Phase of operation - Capacity, effectivity, standards, and customers - The coordination Freight Corridor and Core Network Corridor - Coordination between all corridors - Clarifying the job of the Regulatory Bodies - Strengthening the links between the terminals
