Izaskun Bilbao asks EU for data on high-speed rail work in France and Spain

Basque National Party Euro-MP Izaskun Bilbao Barandica has asked the European Commission for full data on the degree of completion of work on the so-called “Basque Y” rail link and the line in France that is to connect to it. Specifically, she wishes to learn whether this cross-border section of railway line, known in the EU as “priority project 3”, is expected to be completed by the deadline set by the Commission and whether it is to be included in the European strategy for the Atlantic Rim area.

Ms. Bilbao asked these questions in the wake of the Commission’s reply to an earlier question on the same matter that called on Member States to strengthen co-ordination on cross-border projects of this type. The Commission also urged Member States to extend co-ordination to the whole of the sections under construction and involve the persons appointed as responsible for supervising work in each area.
