Train Drivers’ Directive CER Position on the Revision

The revision of the Train Drivers’ Directive (TDD) is a decisive opportunity to remove barriers that still undermine the competitiveness of rail in Europe.

CER supports a targeted and future-proof revision focused on simplification, digitalisation, and operational flexibility.

The objective must be clear: make rail more efficient, more attractive and more competitive, without adding new administrative burdens.
