Participants of the High-Level Deployment Group

The EU-Rail Deployment Group consists of a high-level Core Group, which is complemented on an ad-hoc basis by dedicated groups on specific topics requiring additional expertise. European rail representatives, such as Infrastructure Managers or Rail Operators, and suppliers will be involved to advise EU-Rail on a coordinated and integrated deployment. The Deployment Group’s composition reflects its openness and guarantees an appropriate thematic focus and representativeness.

European Commission decision on approving the composition of the Deployment Group and of the System Pillar steering group of the Europe’s Rail Joint Undertaking can be accessed below.
