- Support for retrofitting and upgrade will be limited to vehicles put into operation before 31/12/2020.
- Support will not be given to fitment of new vehicles.
- "International" unit contribution is granted to vehicles planned for authorisation to operate with ERTMS in more than one Member State, including at least 1 Cohesion Member State.
- "Software + Hardware" unit contribution is granted to vehicles demonstrating a necessity for hardware modification(s).
-
For ERTMS track-side proposals:
-
-
- Proposals covering electronic interlocking and/or Class A radio communication as a stand-alone project shall demonstrate a link with ETCS deployment on the railway line(s) in
