 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

 

PP24 is a freight and passenger railway axis including conventional and high speed traffic for passenger traffic. Approximately 2,100 km long, it involves five Member States (the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France and Italy) and transits through Switzerland.

 

Furthermore, a major component of PP24 is the ERTMS (European Rail Traffic Management System) Rail Freight Corridor A Rotterdam-Genoa, designed in 2006 by the European Commission and CER as part of a network involving five other such corridors on which ERTMS deployment has been given priority.
