European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS)

The European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS) is a single interoperable train control and command system in the European Union. It enhances cross-border interoperability, creating a seamless, EU-wide railway system. The EU Agency for Railways is the system authority for ERTMS.

The mission of ERTMS is to make the railway system work better for society and contribute to the effective functioning of a Single European Railway Area without frontiers. The Agency, as a respected authority, will be the engine for change driving the Single European Railway Area.

Established to provide technical assistance in the development and implementation of the Single European Railway Area, the ERTMS performs a number of activities, including:

  • Development of common minimum requirements and procedures concerning vocational education, competence assessment and drivers certification;

  • Development of the European railway safety culture model, to support design and implementation of strategies to continually improve safety culture;

  • Investigation of rail accidents, aiming at identifying the causes and the root causes of the accidents;

  • Assistance in the development of the legislation regarding the dangerous goods transport, etc.

Extended literature including studies of traffic data, technical advices, consultations and corporate publications are available from ERTMSon their website.

Moreover, events and seminars are frequently organized to share theoretical and practical knowledge.
