COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 454/2011
of 5 May 2011
on the technical specification for interoperability relating to the subsystem ‘telematics applications for passenger services’ of the trans-European rail system
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Directive 2008/57/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 June 2008 on the interoperability of the rail system within the Community (1), and in particular Article 6(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Pursuant to Article 2(e) of Directive 2008/57/EC, the rail system is subdivided into structural and functional subsystems. Each of the subsystems should be covered by a technical specification for interoperability (TSI). |
(2) |
By Decision C(2006) 124 final of 9 February 2007, the Commission gave a mandate to the European Railway Agency (the Agency) to develop technical specifications for interoperability under Directive 2001/16/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 March 2001 on the interoperability of the trans-European conventional rail system (2). Under the terms of that mandate, the Agency was requested to draw up the draft TSI related to telematics applications for passengers. It submitted a recommendation on 31 May 2010. This recommendation should be complemented by an additional recommendation following a mandate from the Commission to cover tariffs, ticketing and reservation for domestic journeys. In drafting its recommendation, the Agency should take into account national developments and technical developments in the area of innovative ticketing and intermodality. |
(3) |
Technical specifications for interoperability are specifications adopted in accordance with the Directive 2008/57/EC. The TSI in Annex covers the subsystem relating to telematics applications for passenger services in order to meet the essential requirements and ensure the interoperability of the rail system. |
(4) |
The efficient interconnection of the information and communication systems of the different infrastructure managers and railway undertakings is considered to be important, in particular for the provision of up-to-date information and ticketing services to passengers. |
(5) |
The purpose of this TSI is to define procedures and interfaces between all types of actors to provide information and issue tickets to passengers via widely available technologies. It should include the exchange of information for the following aspects: systems providing passengers with information before and during the journey, reservation and payment systems, luggage management, issuing of tickets via ticket offices, ticket selling machines, on board trains, telephone, Internet or any other widely available information technology, management of connections between trains and with other modes of transport. |
(6) |
The information provided to passengers should be accessible in accordance with the requirements of Commission Decision 2008/164/EC of 21 December 2007 concerning the technical specification for interoperability relating to ‘persons with reduced mobility’ in the trans-European conventional and high-speed rail system (3). |
(7) |
The provisions of this TSI should not prejudge decisions taken by Member States under Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 1371/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4). |
(8) |
Detailed specifications are necessary to ensure that this Regulation can be applied. Those specifications define the data exchange system based on common components and on the interconnection of the information and communication systems of the relevant actors. Moreover, a description of the governance for the... |
