TODAY: No overall European regulatory framework on High Speed
But Technical Specifications for Interoperability apply Europe-wide:– Rolling Stock (RST TSI HS)– Infrastructure (INF TSI HS)– Energy (ENE TSI HS)– Control Command System (CCS TSI HS & CR)– Operations (OPE TSI HS & CR)
TOMORROW: High Speed is in the focus of attention in two politically relevant transport documents– The 2011 White Paper– The TEN-T Guidelines for 2014-2020
The general EU regulatory framework

New White Paper on Transport demands tripling high-speed rail infrastructure by 2030
To achieve this, the new TEN-T proposal foresees the construction of new high-speed lines and upgrades to high-speed lines across Europe, including EU12, to be part of the core network which must be completed by 2030
New TEN-T proposal requires high-speed lines to be equipped for speeds equal to or greater than 250 km/h
Impact of TEN-T Guideline proposal on high speed rail transport in Europe

High Speed, definitely a way to reduce Europe’s dependency on oil!
But: High Speed should apply where there is a market for it.
This is particularly the case if High Speed substitutes to air short-medium haul and motorways
High Speed should not develop at the expense of the conventional network.
Conventional rail must be maintained, in complementarity to High Speed, and as a feeder network
“Two-(high)Speed Europe” must be avoided; East/West gap shall be bridged
CER view on the high speed railway:Let’s not allow a “Two (high)Speed
Europe”!
