The new US Administration’s strategy is generating interest for a new mobility facing climate emergency, by ensuring the US achieves a 100% clean energy economy and net-zero emissions no later than 2050. A US High-Speed Rail (HSR) Master Plan could represent the backbone of such a new mobility. The HSR is a great opportunity to boost the mobility of the US citizens and its construction has always been related to the concepts of innovation and technological development.
Japan, Europe and China have decided to implement HSR systems long time ago; in fact, connectivity at 220 miles per hour is now a reality in many Countries around the world. Competition gave benefits in many industries, but it is still unusual in the railway sector, especially in the passenger segments.
Italy was the first Country in the world to undergo a railway liberalization process regarding the HSR market. Italy is an example concerning the rail competition with its area of particular excellence regarding traffic management of multiple operators on the same rail network. Furthermore, Italy was the first Country that equipped its HSR network with the most advanced safety system (ERTMS level 2) representing the European standard for HSR lines.
Here is what we can do:
1. High-speed rail
Italy is a benchmark in HSR:

4. Multi-modality and last mile
Modal integration is key in favoring the shift to public transportation (door-to-door solutions). Public authority management shall be complemented with an innovative mobility eco-system.
