These objectives are in line with the nationwide strategy on mobility of the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport outlined in “#ItaliaVeloce”. The component is focused on the rail network known as Integrated National Transport System of 1st level (SNIT), with a clear priority on the TEN-T network (core and comprehensive). The implementing entity is primarily the public national company “Rete Ferroviaria Italiana” (RFI), besides some works to be carried out by regional railways. In the railway sector the interventions are focused on: (i) High-speed railway connections to the South for passengers and freight; (ii) High- speed lines in the North connecting to Europe; (iii) Diagonal connec- tions; (iv) Introducing the European Rail Transport Management System (ERTMS); (v) Strengthening metropolitan nodes and key national links; (vi) Strengthening regional railway lines; (vii) Up- grading, electrification and resilience of railways in the South; (viii) Upgrading railway stations in the South; (ix) Renewal of the rolling stock.

  • Preparatory Study on the Application of JESSICA in the Apulia Region
    Preparatory Study on the application of JESSICA in the Apulia Region Foggia Final Report Summary - Barletta-Andria-Trani March 2010 BARI Brindisi This document has been produced with financial assistance from the European Union. Taranto Lecce The opinions expressed herein should not be considered as the official positions of the European Union under any circumstances. CERTET - Centro di Economia regionale, dei trasporti e del turismo March 2010 This study is the result of joint work by the Centro di Economia Regionale, dei Trasporti e del Turismo (CERTeT), the Bocconi University of Milan and Gruppo Finanziaria Internazionale (Finint) and has been finalised in a single document by the European Investment Bank (EIB). The study was commissioned by the EIB from CERTeT and Finint following a request submitted by the Apulia Region, on 19 February 2009, to benefit from the programme of preparatory studies for the JESSICA programme currently taking place in Italy and in other Member States of the Union, thanks to co-funding from the European Commission and the EIB. The purpose of the study was to examine the potential methods for applying the JESSICA (Joint European Support for Sustainable Investment in City Areas) initiative to the Apulia Region's ERDF Operational Programme for 2007-2013, in the belief that this tool could play an important role in implementing the Operational Programme itself, in particular by making the implementation of the sustainable urban development strategy it contains more effective. Specific interest was expressed by the Region in determining the potential to use financial engineering instruments like JESSICA to support the "San Raffaele del Mediterraneo Hospital" project in Taranto and, consequently, this project was examined as a pilot project.
