At the same time, investing in a network that connects all urban centres with over 250,000 inhabitants and serving a total population of 216 million would deliver added value to society and massively reduce the environmental impact of passenger transport in Europe, creating “sustainable and equitable mobility.” The report entitled Smart and affordable rail services in the EU: a socio-economic and environmental study for high speed in 20 says that joining up these islands to create a comprehensive 49,400km network by 2050 has the potential to increase high-speed rail’s market share to 54% by 2070. “We have a series of islands.” Borghini made his remarks on January 23 as he joined his counterparts at the Community of European Railway and Infrastructure Companies (CER), the Alliance of Passenger Rail New Entrants in Europe (AllRail) and the European Railway Industry Association (Unife) to present the findings of a study commissioned by the four organisations. “AT the moment we do not have a high-speed network in Europe,” says Mr Carlo Borghini, the outgoing executive director of the Europe’s Rail joint research undertaking. ![]()
