Rail noise abatement

Statement on consultation

In a nutshell

Hupac welcomes the initiative of the Federal Office of Transport to further limit the
noise emissions. With respect to the factor rolling stock we emphasize four aspects:

1) Yes to emission limits after an appropriate transition period
2) Noise bonus: active role of Switzerland in Europe - benefits for all
3) Incentive funds "noise bonus" must be fair, long-term and technology neutral
4) Research and development: focus on operability and marketability.
