Replay | The opening up to competition of passenger rail transport in Europe

France, with the law of June 28^th 2018 known as the "new rail pact", transposing EU Directive 2016/2370 of Dec 14^th 2016 on the opening up of the market for national rail passenger transport services, is one of the last European States to have opened up its domestic passenger transport services to competition. The aim is now to analyze the ways in which our European neighbours have done so.

Have disputes arisen and have they led to changes in the organization and regulation of the sector?
