Underlying the Reform Plan’s actions is the need to change the business culture in the sector to enable and empower the new railway companies to operate commercially. [...] In regard to modernization, the goal is to meet EU capacity requirements and quality standards relevant to the TEN-T network6 (in terms of track length and layouts, signaling, and telecommunication systems) and reinforce Serbian capacities in the context of the EU pre-accession process). [...] The GoS will reactivate the Steering Committee as a platform to promote change that requires political consensus and to provide strategic guidance for the modernization of the sector and coordinate sectorial activities among the various GoS institutions and development partners. [...] As part of this dialogue, the World Bank is working with the mission of the EU in Serbia and the Agence Francaise de Développement (AFD) on aligning future investments and initiatives the sector. [...] The quality of the railway network will be improved through targeted renewal interventions and preparation of technical documentation for the next phases of the Program.
