TSI Telematics: Intensified and Improved Data Sharing 05/11/24
< Retour à la listeTSI Telematics: Intensified and Improved Data Sharing as the Path to Increased Competitiveness of Road-Rail Combined Transport
UIRR welcomes the European Commission’s non-paper on TSI Telematics which mandates the sharing of high-quality and interoperable data pursuant to the Data Act - Regulation (EU) 2023/2854. UIRR also welcomes the removal of barriers to the sharing of data between the relevant stakeholders, including intermodal operators and terminal operators by respecting the so-called Rotterdam Clause of the Ministerial Declaration on Rail Freight Corridors to boost international rail freight (TEN-T Days 2016)1.
The TSI Telematics is essential for door-to-door intermodal freight transport, bringing together several intermodal stakeholders and different transport modes in a productive and efficient way, to perform a single cargo movement typically over longer distances. Today, intermodal freight transport represents about 50% of the total freight transported on rail.
Why sharing relevant data in combined transport is so vital
Although intermodal rail freight has significant energy and GHG efficiency advantages when compared to unimodal road transport, some potential shippers and logistics service providers do not yet shift their transport assignments to intermodal rail freight. The lack of information and service quality are a twin challenge for the competitiveness and the attractiveness of intermodal rail freight services.
