Separation of traffic flows
(medium-long distance,
regional and local passenger
transport, freight transport)
Integration between
new High Speed lines
and the existing network
Italferr has designed and developed
a series of upgrading, modernisation
and integration projects
for the transport networks
of the main Italian towns and cities.
The design of the entry of the new
High Speed lines
into the metropolitan areas
represented an opportunity
to review the urban rail networks.
