Será que o António Costa e ‘sus muchachos’ lêm este tipo
de propostas !?
“ 2. Lisbon to Helsinki - running from Lisbon
through Spain and France, via Paris, then to Belgium and the Netherlands before
splitting into a loop via Berlin and onwards to Helsinki.”
A avaliar pelos artigos do Carlos Cipriano no Público a
que o Governo nunca dá resposta, a ferrovia em Portugal ainda está na Idade da
Pedra .
E depois apresentam-se os projectos da CP como exemplo da
“descarbonização da economia”… Um escândalo de incompetência e falta de visão.
Só dá mesmo é estar de mão estendida. Trabalho de casa, NADA.
Pois, os “outros” podem ser ‘frugais’, mas Costa, é parco
de ideias e o maior a ‘pedinchar à boleia’ sem qualquer tipo de iniciativa.

Paris to Berlin in just four hours on proposed
European ultra-rapid train network

The EU's
Covid-19 economic recovery package could be used to fund a European ultra-rapid
train network - including a four-hour train link from Paris to Berlin.
The EU's €2
trillion recovery package for economies blighted by the coronavirus pandemic
and the subsequent lockdown has been driven by French president Emmanuel Macron
and German chancellor Angela Merkel, and aims to avoid a damaging and
long-lasting recession.
It proposes
helping out industries particularly badly hit by the lockdown such as tourism.
But a
report from the Vienna Institute for Economic Studies looking at ways of
spending the fund to give the greatest benefit also suggests a series of
massive infrastructure projects including a European ultra-rapid train network.
The
document proposes "a European green high-speed train network to be
established as part of a recovery programme from the Covid-19 crisis over the
period of the 2020s.
"The
URT network should be a new double-track high-speed railway system that is
complementary to the existing networks.
'However,
where suitable, also existing lines could be adapted. An average speed in the
range of 250-350 km/h should be achieved. This would allow passengers to halve
the current rail travel times, for instance, from Paris to Berlin in about four
hours, making air travel for a large part of the intra-European passenger
transport obsolete.
"Cutting by around half the EU’s domestic air
passenger operations has the potential to reduce global commercial aviation CO2
emissions by about 4-5 percent. In addition, rail cargo capacities would be
increased, freight transport speeded up and so also road-vehicle emissions
reduced."
The plan
proposes four lines.
1. Paris to
Dublin - from Paris to Brest, taking the Brest-Cork ferry then running from
Cork to Dublin. The report describes this route as 'taking on an additional
significance in the context of Brexit'.
2. Lisbon
to Helsinki - running from Lisbon through Spain and France, via Paris, then to
Belgium and the Netherlands before splitting into a loop via Berlin and onwards
to Helsinki.
3. Brussels
to Valetta - through Belgium, Germany, Switzerland and Italy before taking the
ferry to Malta
4. Berlin
to Nicosia - with a ferry-based sea link between Piraeus and Paphos and a loop
between Vienna and Sofia.
