What is happening
The sixth consultative ERTMS Forum took place on 26 June 2026, with around 50 participants representing 22 Member States, Switzerland, Norway and the United Kingdom, as well as several European rail organisations. In October 2025, ERTMS Programme Directors held an informal meeting focused on practical deployment challenges, including governance, supplier relations, procurement, funding and technological transitions. A third North Sea–Rhine–Mediterranean Corridor Forum was scheduled for 17 November 2025 as an in-person meeting in Brussels.
Why is it on the Radar?
The meetings provided forums for discussing ERTMS deployment, sharing practical experience and addressing coordination issues linked to European transport corridors.
