"In spite of its potential as an environmentally sustainable mode of transport, rail transport has not managed to impose itself as a preferred means of transporting either people or goods. In this last area, market share was lost to road transport in the period 1996-2008. There is therefore a need for policies enabling the revitalisation of this mode of transport, so reducing obstacles to international transportation – since, in this sector, there are still artificial barriers to freedom of movement – and promoting new entrants into the market. As such, it is necessary to separate the entities dedicated to rail infrastructure from service operation companies, so that they are all on equal terms, so preventing abuse of dominant position by operators with greater economic weight. Since I believe that this reform of the railway area’s regulatory framework will contribute to the creation of a European transport network with significant advantages in terms of quality of service, job creation, safety and environmental sustainability, I voted in favour."@en1
