1️⃣
A smart and sustainable Trans-European Transport Network, boosting high-speed trains and embedding multimodality.
424 cities will be interconnected by ports, airports and railway terminals. Once completed, travel times between these cities will be considerably reduced.
2️⃣
Only 7% of rail kilometres travelled between 2001 and 2018 involved cross-border trips.
We aim to make long-distance cross-border train travel more attractive and the default travel option for many more 🇪🇺 passengers: quicker journeys, more frequencies, and more affordable.
3️⃣
Smart mobility makes our mobility more sustainable.
We propose to update the current Intelligent Transport Systems directive for road transport, adapting to the emergence of:
🛣️new road mobility options
📱mobility apps
🚗connected and automated mobility
4️⃣
Over 70% of Europeans live in cities that generate 23% of all transport greenhouse emissions.
Our new Urban Mobility Framework will guide the transition to safe, accessible, smart, & zero-emission urban mobility, with the main focus on public transport, walking and cycling.

@VeraJourova@dreynders 1⃣️ Digitising our justice systems is key to providing easier and faster access to justice.
Our initiatives:
✅ Digitalisation of cross-border judicial cooperation
✅ Digital information exchange in terrorism cases
✅ Establishing a platform for Joint Investigation Teams
2⃣️ Justice systems also need to be more resilient to crises, and courts need to be able to work in all circumstances.
This is a principle of the rule of law. ⚖️
And equipping justice systems with the appropriate tools is about supporting this principle.
