On May 6, 2022, the Belgian federal government approved Minister Georges Gilkinet’s “Vision of Rail 2040.” inno-V participated in the creation of this vision of the Belgian federal minister of mobility.<\/p>\n
The Vision is intended as a framework for rail policy over the next 20 years. It identifies levers that will enable rail to play its role as a backbone in a more sustainable mobility system that is consistent with international, federal and regional objectives in terms of reducing CO2 emissions, improving mobility, reducing congestion, reducing traffic accidents and supporting the economy.<\/p>\n
And a few key points are a strengthening of the supply with the long-term aim of a basic supply with fixed times of 4 trains\/hour near the major cities and on the busiest routes, and 2 trains\/hour on the rest of the network and fast connections between major cities; the introduction of an improved junction timetable with a more systematic service that moves toward a more intensive use of the rail network as in countries such as Switzerland, Austria or the Netherlands, which serve as inspiration here.<\/p>\n
