The European Commission, through the European Innovation Council and SMEs Executive Agency (EISMEA), is seeking experts to contribute to the development of the future harmonized EN 16614 Network Timetable Exchange (NeTEx) standard. This strategic initiative will support the implementation of key EU legislation on multimodal travel information and rail data interoperability, helping to build a more connected and digital European transport system.
As Europe continues its transition towards cleaner and more sustainable mobility, hydrogen is emerging as one of the technologies that could help reduce the environmental impact of rail transport, particularly on lines where conventional electrification is difficult or economically challenging.
A new CEN Workshop is being established to provide much-needed guidance for ammonia refuelling points and bunkering for ammonia fuelled vessels. The project’s vision is to capture industry best practices for the safe use and storage of ammonia as a marine fuel.
The CEN Workshop on was kicked off on 3rd October 2025. The Workshop’s registered participants have agreed on the first draft of the CWA.

The European Commission, through the European Innovation Council and SMEs Executive Agency (EISMEA), is funding experts to join the BT4PT project, a strategic initiative to create a European Standard (EN) for barcode ticketing that will enable seamless multimodal and multi-operator travel across Europe.
The European Commission, through the European Innovation Council and SMEs Executive Agency (EISMEA), is funding experts to participate in the EUDIT project, a new initiative to develop a European Standard (EN) for digital interfaces (APIs) that will transform how transport tickets are distributed across Europe.
The European Commission, through the European Innovation Council and SMEs Executive Agency (EISMEA), is funding experts to contribute to the Cyclinfra project, an initiative to improve the exchange and re-use of digital, machine-readable cycling network data across Europe. The project aims to make cycling more attractive and accessible by ensuring that accurate geographic data on cycling infrastructure is available, interoperable, and easy to integrate into modern mobility services.
As we rely more and more on digital tools to navigate public transport, the need for consistent, accurate, and real-time travel information has become essential. Whether it is knowing if your train is delayed or finding out whether a lift at your metro station is working, these updates shape how we plan and experience our journeys.
A new CEN Workshop is being planned which will complement the activities of the Clean Harbours initiative at commercial passenger terminals ('GREEN BAY'), led by the Var Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCI). This project aims to create and provide a new European Environmental Standard for commercial ports with passenger terminals.
