It is relatively clear just why this is such a pressing matter: as Mr Cramer has already mentioned, there are currently, in Europe, over 20 different signalling and speed monitoring systems, the cost of which is measured, firstly, in space on board, not to mention money, and also, of course, maximises to the utmost the possibilities for error and ultimately constitutes a safety problem.
Vi è inoltre un ostacolo insormontabile per l’ interoperabilità, che certamente – come ha segnalato l’ onorevole Cramer – rende il settore ferroviario meno competitivo, in particolare in vista dell’ incremento costante del traffico e dell’ esigenza impellente di trasferirlo dalla strada alla rotaia.
