Transport
European Rail Research Advisory Council - ERRAC
Europe’s railways provide a vital transport infrastructure supporting Europe’s citizens and businesses through passenger travel and the shipment of freight around the continent. However, a large part of the European network is already working to its maximum capacity and customer expectations are increasing in terms of speed, availability, comfort, punctuality, reliability, flexibility and traceability (freight). New technologies are needed in order to meet these demands and further enhance the role that railways play in providing reliable, affordable, safe and environmentally friendly transport for long and short distances.
