In June 2011, Euro Carex asked the Belgian consultant ETS to the consolidation of data from market research carried out locally by the various sites Carex. This preparatory work for the realization of the Euro Carex business plan is complex because the perimeters, reference units, and the year, differ from one study to another. The analysis presented on November 24 2011  in Roissy-en-France (CDG) led to define a reliable method of consolidation which should be validated at the last week of February 2012. Then, the consultant will need two / three months to deliver a report on consolidated flow statement.

Meanwhile, the consortium SNCF Geodis - EUROPORTE continues its independent market research conducted by the firm Frost and Sullivan, the first phase showed that the "express" high value air flow at night is the indispensable foundation of the project "CAREX".

Finally, local entities continue Carex Planning Studies and interface air-rail-road, coordinated within the federation Euro Carex.

Round-table and debate in Brussels, Wednesday the 14th of April 2010, co-organised by Ile-de-France Europe and Euro Carex, with the participation of Gilles Savary, former Vice President of the Commission on Transport of the European Parliament, Vice-president of the Gironde County council (France),  Mathieu Grosch and Said El Khadraoui, members of the European Parliament - TRAN Commission (Transport), Sandro Santamato, head of unit, DG Move A3, European Commission, Yanick Paternotte, President of the EURO CAREX association, and member of the French Parliament.

At a time when the European Parliament is debating over its future contribution on transport policy, the European Commission is preparing a communication, due in autumn 2010, on the future scenarios that will determine the future of transport for the coming 20 to 40 years, as well as a proposition to revise the guidelines of the Trans European Transport Network (TEN-T).

The future White Paper of the Commission should make suggestions as to new policy orientations, aiming at rebalancing different modes of transport by revitalizing rail, promoting maritime and fluvial transport, and monitoring the growth in air transport. And all this with a sustainable perspective, by addressing the ever growing problems of energy costs, CO2 gas emissions, goods transport safety and congestion of major road axis.

These concerns are tackled by EURO CAREX, a project that aims to develop a European freight service on the existing high speed rail network. It will thereby allow the modal report of air freight, currently transported by trucks or short and medium distance flights, towards high speed trains. During a first phase that runs until 2015, the EURO CAREX service will link the airports of Amsterdam-Schiphol, Liège, Lyon-Saint-Exupéry, Roissy-CDG, the London area and Germany (Cologne or Frankfurt). In the future, the network will extend as far as Italy and Spain.

Yanick Paternotte, Member of the French Parliament, Chairman of Roissy Carex and Euro Carex and author of the Parliamentary report «Remettre le fret sur les rails : un défi économique, social et environnemental» (Getting freight back on track: an economic, social and environmental challenge) is delighted with the rail freight revival programme unveiled by the government on 16 September 2009, not least because it adopts many of his recommendations.

These recommendations include the creation of local rail operators and the development of high-speed freight. In its national commitment to rail freight, the government also reiterates its support for the Carex high-speed freight project initiated and supported by Yanick Paternotte.

It has to be said that this commitment by government to rail freight marks a necessary and welcome break with previous policy in this area. The task now is to support and defend this French political initiative at the European level.
