Rail Facilities Portal Supported by DG MOVE and Major Sector Players
The Rail Facilities Portal is now supported officially by the European Commission (DG MOVE) and many important organisations of the railway sector. This is a signal that there is a business need for this Portal, thus it has the potential to become a common European business tool for information about access to rail service facilities. We have received supporting letters from several organisations:
- A supporting letter from European Commission (DG-MOVE) signed by the head of DG-MOVE, Director-General Henrik Hololei
- A supporting letter from Independent Regulators Group – Rail (IRG-RAIL) signed by the Chairman Mr. Serge Drugmand
- A supporting letter from CEFIC, CER, ERFA, ESPO, Terminali Italia srl., UIC, and UIP RAIL signed by
- Joost Naessens, Director Transport and Logistics, CEFIC – European Chemical Industry Council
- Dr. Libor Lochman, Executive Director, CER – Community of European Railway and Infrastructure Companies
- Conor Feighan, Secretary General, ERFA – European Rail Freight Association
- Isabelle Ryckbost, Secretary General, ESPO – European Sea Ports Organization
- Guiseppe Acquaro, Chief Executive Officer, Terminali Italia Srl
- Sandra Gehenot, Director Freight, UIC – International Union of Railways
- Gilles Peterhans, Secretary, General, UIP RAIL – International Union of Wagon Keepers
To this end, all rail service facility operators are invited to make information about their service facilities available in the Portal. If you are willing to participate, please do not hesitate to contact the Portal management via contact@railfacilitiesportal.eu.
