For people living in border regions, a journey can involve two countries – but also:
😵💫 two ticketing systems,
😵💫 timetables that don’t connect or
😵💫 public transport planned separately on either side.
Europeans have a practical vision for what could change.
🚃 Consultations on the future of Interreg point towards transport services planned more closely across borders, greener mobility solutions and targeted improvements where connections are still missing.
It’s a shift from looking at transport on either side of the border separately to looking at the journey as a whole.
🇪🇺 These priorities are helping inform discussions about Interreg after 2027.
