Traduction de «Système ferroviaire à grande vitesse » (Français → Anglais) :

With regard to the basic requirements and procedures for developing the Technical Specifications of Interoperability (TSI) between high-speed and conventional rail system, the new directive merges and combines, where appropriate, the related provisions covering conventional and high speed European networks.

But we are committed to faster passenger rail service. The Chair: Yes, but you will commit and have every intention of committing the infrastructure that is needed for VIA Rail—and the number, as Mr. Keyes has said, is close to three-quarters of a billion dollars—to facilitate the VIA Rail upgrades for cars, and there is some discussion as to whether some of that three-quarters of a billion dollars will be spent in preparation of the higher-speed rail system.

A supplementary TSI may prove necessary, in particular to promote the use of the high-speed rail system for the carriage of high value-added goods or for applications necessary in order to interconnect the high-speed rail system with airports.

With regard to the high-speed rail system, I shall just highlight two aspects, which I think are crucial: the interconnection and interoperability of high-speed infrastructures with rolling stock and additional services are crucial for facilitating the mobility of persons and goods and for promoting a high-speed trans-European rail system that is efficient and able to respond to the needs of the public.
