France's railway dream
In a world turned upside down by the pandemic and compelled to tackle the climate emergency, the people of France are calling for far-reaching change that will create more convenient mobility solutions bringing greater peace of mind. These aspirations form the basis of France’s new railway dream.
An inspirational railway dream, that will benefit our customers and their customers, support regional development and help safeguard the planet.
An accessible railway dream, the focus of the 53,000 staff of SNCF Réseau who are working towards it as part of the new railway agreement and through a strategic development plan that sets the direction for transforming the network by 2030.
At a time when the market is opening up to competition, SNCF Réseau is strengthening its results-driven culture based on the standards of continuous improvement. Every decision and action the company takes starts with the customer.
Driving performance through digital and innovation
SNCF Réseau ensures continuous improvement of operational and service quality by focusing its major industrial programmes on digitising tools and structures for streamlined, safer, more effective operation and maintenance.
For the past few years, SNCF Réseau has been pursuing a major programme of rail infrastructure modernisation in consultation with regional authorities. A total of €2.8 billion is being invested in regenerating the network in 2021, in connection with social and environmental promises.
