THIS IS US…
RAIL FREIGHT FORWARD (RFF) is the EUROPEAN COALITION of RAIL FREIGHT undertakings, industry partners and federations. Formed in 2018 during COP24 and brought to life by NOAH’s TRAIN, the longest mobile artwork in the world, RFF is raising attention for the role and emphasizing the relevance of RAIL FREIGHT for Europe´s future and climate!
…AND THIS IS WHAT WE DO
The RFF coalition is unified and driven by their common vision “to make rail freight the green & multimodal, logistical backbone for all people in Europe”.
To achieve this, we need a #MODALSHIFT striving for #30BY2030 - a 30% modal share of rail-freight by 2030.
#MODALSHIFT #30BY2030
… is neither a marketing claim nor an economically competitive target.
It’s an essential contribution and a necessary condition to fulfill the objectives of the European Green Deal!
Road transportation emits 275 million tons of CO2 every year with dramatic consequences - no further need for explanation.
If railway undertakings, infrastructure managers and policy makers fail in turning around growth trends in road transportation now, by 2030 people in Europe will see ONE MILLION trucks ADDITIONALLY to the 6 million already circulating around our living environment.
BY REVOLUTIONIZING THE WAY WE WORK
Radical transformation in terms of European co-operation among all players within the logistics chain, as well as fast implementation of new technologies to rolling stock and existing infrastructures and leveling the playing field between transport modes, will allow Europe´s rail freight industry to finally unfold its full potential and achieve a modal share of 30% of all goods transported in Europe by rail until 2030.
SERA, the Single European Railway Area, through its combination of interoperability, digitalisation, automation and multimodality, will enable high-performance rail logistics processes that support our daily lives.
Green, Resilient, Innovative.
WE'VE GOT THE VISION
