The revision of the TEN-T Regulation is timely and necessary to achieve the European Green Deal’s ambitious climate targets, which should ensure modal shift to help attain a 55% reduction in transport emissions by 2030 and 90% by 2050.

CER urges policymakers not to miss this vital opportunity for greening transport, facilitating a seamless and efficient mobility system, strengthening the resilience of infrastructure and improving the efficiency of the governance tools of the TEN-T Regulation. All this should ultimately enable the transition to sustainable modes of transport, such as rail, and achieve the objectives of the Smart and Sustainable Mobility Strategy (SSMS).
