🛤️ Česká iniciativa na záchranu železniční nákladní dopravy v Evropě získala na červnové Radě ministrů dopravy širokou podporu členských států. Teď ji potřebujeme proměnit v konkrétní opatření.
💻 Přímo z Pardubic jsem se proto připojil k on-line jednání se zástupci Společenství evropských železničních a infrastrukturních společností @CER_railways . Zkušenosti a podněty dopravců i správců infrastruktury jsou klíčové, aby opatření fungovala v praxi.
V jednáních budu pokračovat příští týden na veletrhu InnoTrans v Berlíně.

➡️ Rail already avoids €11.4 billion in oil imports every year and Europe’s future #HighSpeedRail network could avoid +€750 billion in oil imports by 2070.
➡️ Rail is Europe’s most electrified and energy-efficient mode of transport.

As the European Commission @Transport_EU prepares an EU Strategy for #SustainableTourism, the survey findings make a strong case for railways to be included in policymakers’ plans.
