New EU rules to allow more competition on the rail market look set to come into force by the end of 2012, following a final vote of approval in the European Parliament on 3 July 2012. The new rules (Rail Recast Directive) tackle 3 major problems on the market: (1) strengthening the power of national regulators; (2) improving the framework for investment in rail (3) ensuring fair access to rail infrastructure and rail related services. They are a direct response to many complaints from operators in recent years. |
