Effectively integrating urban nodes in TENT corridors boosting
Effectively integrating urban nodes in TEN-T corridors, boosting innovation and interoperability Hearing of European Coordinators Catherine Trautmann and Karel Vinck Brussels, 4 May 2017 Mobility and Transport
Effectively integrating urban nodes and boosting innovation Role and challenges of urban nodes • Urban nodes are connecting points linking different transport modes and types of traffic (long-distance and urban/regional transport ) • They are essential for the effectiveness of the European transport corridors as well as for regional development and social cohesion • Urban logistics operations are part of national or international supply chains • Congestions costs nearly 100 billion Euro, or 1% of the EU's GDP, annually and is to a great extent located in urban areas • Urban nodes also face challenges relating to air and noise pollution, accidents, increasing demands and often protests from the citizens Mobility and Transport
Effectively integrating urban nodes and boosting innovation Potential of urban nodes • Urban nodes offer a great potential for economic development and spillover effects • They usually provide excellent conditions for establishing value-added logistics services and multimodal platforms • In fighting air pollution and congestion, urban nodes can act as a catalyst for modal shift • Good cooperation of cities and surrounding regions is needed to make traffic flows in urban nodes as efficient as they can be • Exchange of best practice can support the further development of innovative solutions for sustainable transport in urban nodes Mobility and Transport
Effectively integrating urban nodes and boosting innovation Innovation challenges and opportunities • Digitalisation and deployment of alternative fuels create challenges and opportunities for an interoperable and sustainable TEN-T • TEN-T and the Corridors could become catalysts and a new "space for innovation", presenting a unique opportunity to promote cooperation amongst all stakeholders: industry, Member States, local and regional authorities, users etc. • The Corridors can serve to pilot innovative solutions and facilitate largescale deployment, overcoming the so-called "valley of death" by strongly interconnecting R&I and deployment • Lessons learned and experiences from the TEN-T field need to be fed back into the R&I world, to refine concepts, technologies and solutions for a better performing trans-European network Mobility and Transport
Effectively integrating urban nodes and boosting innovation Aims of the Coordinators' issue papers on innovation and urban nodes: • Make full use of innovation, digitalisation and decarbonisation potential, as enablers of a fully multimodal and sustainable TEN-T • Integrate TEN-T in the respective urban realities and planning, contribute to the Urban Agenda for the EU (Pact of Amsterdam) • Seamless passenger mobility, efficient urban logistics connected to TENT • Urban nodes as platforms for innovation deployment, synergies between energy, transport and digital • Pave the way for flagship projects on the Corridors to be developed in 2017 and implemented within 3 -4 years Mobility and Transport
Our ultimate objective is INTEROPERABILITY. ERTMS is the most efficient tool to reach it. Mobility and Transport
ERTMS is more than a signalling system DIGITALISATION DECARBONISATION Backbone of digitalised rail Interoperability => modal shift network and basis for e. g. Capacity increase of 5 -10% autonomous driving that will increase long distance New communication system for freight traffic and short- and ERTMS defined by 2019 medium-distance passenger traffic Key enabler for interoperability and competitiveness of rail GLOBALISATION EU deployment provides base for EU suppliers to sell worldwide e. g. Saudi-Arabia, Australia, Turkey PEOPLE-FOCUSSED SOLUTIONS Benchmark system for rail safety e. g. commitment of BE to implement ERTMS nationwide Mobility and Transport
Interoperability objectives of Breakthrough programme 2015 (first Work Plan) • Stable and mature set of specifications • Realistic European Deployment Plan (EDP) for ERTMS (two-step approach) • standardised and complete, B 3 on-board equipment should be able to run everywhere in Europe; • An interoperable and compliant infrastructure where this standardised on-board unit (OBU) can run • National requirements reduced to a minimum • A clear and transparent regulatory framework (e. g. national requirements should be notified) • Harmonisation of operational and authorisation rules Mobility and Transport
State of play of Breakthrough programme implementation (second Work Plan) • Stable ERTMS specifications (B 3 R 2) were adopted in June 2016 • Reviewed EDP has been accepted and committed by Member States • Key commitments of Mo. U 2016 ØStandardised OBU ØTrack-side approval by ERA (reach an interoperable and compliant infrastructure ) • Agreement with European supplier industry Mobility and Transport
Action plan for ERTMS • To implement the Breakthrough programme and the Mo. U 2016 during period 2016 – 2023 Ø Standardised OBU Ø compliant infrastructure • Focus on Corridors (incl. Rail Freight Corridors) • Cross-border sections Mobility and Transport
