Fiche récapitulative
The project concerns the enhancement of the technical and commercial configuration/specifications of rolling stock operated on both the local and the long distance passenger and freight service networks.
The project will increase the reliability, efficiency, speed, capacity and safety of trains operating on the Italian railway network. It will contribute to sustainable transport solutions in line with the EU transport policy objectives and the planned development of the Italian railway system.
The project components do not fall within the scope of EU Directive 97/11. The replacement or upgrading of old rolling stock should benefit the environment, not only because the modern rolling stock should be more energy efficient and reliable, but also because improved services should attract passengers to the railways and contribute to a reduction of road transport.
The promoter follows the EU procurement Directives for all projects.
