Connection of the Hupac and T3M Operators' networks between France and Italy

 

The Swiss Rail Operator Hupac and the French Rail Operator T3M are pleased to announce their partnership between France and Italy.

From 18 January 2021, this new collaboration will allow the connection of the T3M shuttle between Paris ó Novara (Milan Region) and the Hupac shuttles between Novara Pescara (Manopello) and Bari. The CIM terminal in Novara will serve as a connection platform for the shuttles from and to France and Italy.

Simplified flow of goods between France and Italy

By connecting their existing services, T3M & Hupac offer a reliable and regular rail transport solution covering a distance of more than 1,700 km between two European countries.

"In order to encourage the modal shift to rail, we need to develop transport solutions that meet the needs of our road haulage customers. Access to simple, reliable and regular transport, despite distance and borders, is what we are doing today thanks to our partnership with T3M", explains Alessandro Valenti, Director Shuttle Net West, of Hupac.

 

"It is all the more important to implement this type of partnership as the development of rail freight and more particularly combined rail-road transport is a priority. We are currently facing many crises, the most important of which is the climate crisis, for which land transport of goods through combined rail-road transport can provide a significant part of the solution. The complementarity of road and rail modes is the future of long-distance transport and it is up to us to facilitate access to it", adds Anthony Chérubini, Managing Director of T3M.
