The European Rail Network for Competitive Freight

The Regulation concerning a European Rail Network for Competitive Freight (Regulation EC 913/2010) entered into force on 9 November 2010. The Regulation requests Member State to establish international market-oriented Rail Freight Corridors to meet three challenges concerning:

  • the European integration of rail infrastructures by strengthening co-operation between Infrastructure Managers on investment and traffic management;
  • a balance between freight and passenger traffic along the Rail Freight Corridors, giving adequate capacity and priority for freight in line with market needs and ensuring that common punctuality targets for freight trains are met;
  • the intermodality between rail and other transport modes by integrating terminals into the corridor management and development
