Reaction of Europe on Rail on the European Commission Action Plan to boost long distance and cross-border passenger rail

On Tuesday 14th of December, the European Commission published its Action plan to boost long distance and cross-border passenger rail. While making a positive step towards recognizing the shortcomings of the status quo, it should be strengthened to effectively contribute to the Green Deal objectives and the European Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy. In reaction to this release, the Europe on Rail coalition stresses the importance of actual implementation, and calls on national governments to support this strategy.
