On 22. January 2018 - 55th anniversary of the signing of the Elysée Treaty - parliaments of France and Germany signed a 16-page resolution with the intention to revise the Elysée Treaty later this year.
Especially people in the border regions should particularly benefit from this initiative. Cross-border investment in infrastructure should focus on railways, electro-mobility (joint charging station) and cycling infrastructure. According to this resolution, the so-called Eurodistricts in these regions should get more autonomy for this purpose and both countries should agree on intensive cooperation in the reconstruction of a European night train network. The same applies to the cooperation in local public transport, including between municipalities in both countries.
