A coalition of 15 NGOs, including Brussels-based Transport and Environment and the Campaign for Better Transport, have written to the European Commission calling for it to fully utilise its Multimodal Digital Mobility Services Regulation (MDMS) to support a transition to greener forms of transport and a subsequent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.
Their letter says the regulation "should enable a modal shift from air to rail at both national and cross-border levels" by enabling consumers to seamlessly combine low-carbon transport such as rail and bus.
