T4RAIL IT-SI
Policy objective: PO 1 - A more competitive and smarter Europe by promoting innovative and smart economic transformation and regional ICT connectivity
Specific objective: SO 1 - Developing and enhancing research and innovation capacities and the uptake of advanced technologies
Typology: Standard project
The project T4RAIL IT-SI aims to tackle one of the common challenges of the Italy-Slovenia crossborder area identified by the Program Strategy: the lack of integration of national and regional transport systems and the poor infrastructure and cross-border mobility solutions, creating bottlenecks due to traffic congestion in the area. The T4RAIL IT-SI project fits into this context with a proposal, that supports the creation of cross-border networks, the capitalization of R&D results and digitalisation as a horizontal objective impacting also the cross-border transport sector, with tangible effects at both the level of freight transport and passenger transport, at regional, national and international level.
- Promote the processes of technological innovation and digitalisation of the railway sector.
- Improve cross-border railway connections between Italy and Slovenia.
- Increase job opportunities and improve the competitiveness and sustainability of local companies.
- Guarantee greater accessibility to resident people.
- Reduce the environmental impact of transport and improve cross-border territorial cohesion.
- Adaptation of the T4RAIL digitalization system to the local context and to the communication systems of the railway organizations involved.
- The training of on-board and ground staff.
- Risk assessments and experimentation of the T4RAIL tool in order to evaluate all possible scenarios, accompanied by continuous monitoring and evaluation of the results.
- Evaluate the impact of the digitalisation of railway procedures at the border on the Program Area from different socio-economic and environmental perspectives.
