RFC Traffic Management Information

The Traffic Management Information (TMI) document provides a detailed overview of the traffic management information content and structure; its annexes deal with specific traffic management information regarding the border sections relevant for RFCs.

The complete Traffic Management Information document can be downloaded as a PDF. The annexes in Excel format can be downloaded as Annexes.

Priority Rules

Within the framework of activities providing support to RNE Members with the implementation of EU Regulation 913/2010, RNE has collected much information regarding the priority rules applied in operation by its Member Infrastructure Managers (IMs) and described them in a comprehensive (regularly updated) document: Overview of the Priority Rules in Operation (PRO)

The ”Overview of the Priority Rules in Operation” also contains the PRO recommendations, which can be found in Chapter 5. The PRO recommendations were defined based on principles, such as: acting similarly when a similar situation occurs, increasing punctuality, capacity utilisation for an optimal traffic flow, ensuring the mobility or transport chain, and reaching the normal operation as soon as possible.

The main goals for PRO recommendations on how to treat the trains are therefore defined as the following (without specific order):

  • Restore the “plan” as quickly as possible;
  • Arrange the train runs to optimize capacity utilisation;
  • Reduce the delays of delayed trains;
  • Keep the trains punctual at least for the locations where they have relation to other traffic activities or undergo planned procedures;
  • Keep punctuality for the long-distance trains;
  • Provide the staff with information and tools to be able to manage the disrupted situations.

International Contingency Management

To coordinate incidents and disruptions, the International Contingency Management Handbook was introduced in 2018 and later revised in 2021 and 2024 reflecting the gained experiences. RNE, with the support of the RFCs has taken the responsibility of keeping this document up to date.

Further information can be found on the Incident Management page.
