                                      Berlin. The German Pro-Rail Alliance has criticised the federal government’s proposed changes to the regulations on motorway charges for HGVs. “The transport ministry is planning to take two steps backwards when it comes to protecting the environment,” said the managing director of the Pro-Rail Alliance in Berlin on Tuesday. The government’s pla...

                                      Berlin. In contrast with the nation-wide uproar over the Stuttgart 21 project, the members of the German Pro-Rail Alliance were surprisingly unanimous in their verdict on the federal government’s 58 essential projects for railway expansion and new construction. The majority of the projects on the positive list were judged as ‘beyond dispute’. On...

                                      Berlin. The Pro-Rail Alliance has welcomed the results of a study on infrastructure carried out by the Federal Environment Agency. “Government investment of 11 billion Euros in rail infrastructure would create the conditions for a doubling of rail freight transport. We now finally have a basis for discussing how the long-overdue turnaround in fr...

                                      Berlin. The response to an opinion poll of regional transport companies on the question of using longer and heavier vehicles, carried out by the University of Applied Sciences in Erfurt, was unequivocal: over 90 percent of the 247 regional road hauliers saw no need to use longer vehicles. &quot;This level of clarity is new,&quot; said Martin Roggermann, t...

                                      Berlin. The three largest railway organisations in Germany consider the federal transport ministry's so-called &quot;re-adjustment&quot; of its Master-Plan for Freight Transport and Logistics to be nothing more than an inappropriate amputation. In a letter to the federal government official responsible for logistics and the Master-Plan, secretary of state...

                                      Berlin. In the controversy over the tax on plane tickets, the Pro-Rail Alliance has called on the federal government to remain firm on its ecologically motivated aviation taxes. &quot;Aviation is the most environmentally damaging form of transport, but it receives the highest subsidies from society,&quot; said the managing director of the Pro-Rail Allianc...

                                      Berlin. France is planning a radical change in its transport policy: of the 170 billion Euros that the government is planning for investments in transport infrastructure over the next two decades, 90 percent is being reserved for forms of transport that offer an alternative to flying and the roads. Half of the budget - 85 billion Euros - is due ...

The German Pro-Rail Alliance has reacted with cautious optimism to the federal cabinet's proposed budget for 2011. &quot;When it comes to rail infrastructure, the 2011 budget remains around one billion Euros short of the necessary five billion that it requires. However, federal transport Minister Peter Ramsauer has actually managed to slightl...
