Legislative Developments in Rail Transport in 2009
Abstract
Several major changes were introduced into Polish rail transport law in
2009. As it is often the case with legislative changes of recent years, most
of the amendments were inspired by European law. The transposition
deadlines for several major directives passed in 2009 accompanied by the
entry into force of some key EU regulations in the area of rail transport.
The long awaited amendments relating to the liability of railway undertakings
and insurance obligations relating to passengers, their luggage and train
delays were finally introduced in 2009. At the same time, railway undertakings
were very concerned with the implementation of Directive 2007/58/EC2
introducing infrastructure access rights for rail carriers from other Member
States in relation to international passenger services.
