Overview

Background & policy context:

The main  purpose  of  HIPPOPS is  to  simplify  and  harmonise  authorisation processes and procedures for the placing of on board and track side ERTMS subsystems  and  products  into  operation/service.

Objectives:

Main objectives  of  the proposed action are the following:

  1. Understand the current authorisation processes and procedures for ERTMS in the different Member States and assess their differences and particularities.
  2. Identify the main obstacles and technical issues in an authorisation process for ERTMS in different Member States.
  3. Define and elaborate simplified and harmonised ERTMS authorisation processes and procedures across Member States with paying special attention to corridors.

HIPPOPS is expected to contribute to the reduction of costs and time needed 
for authorisation of ERTMS subsystems and products.
