Network Statement

 

We are the central contact for the use of the network

 

The Network Statement (NWS) is published by ÖBB-Infrastruktur AG and gives an overview on the conditions of use of the network operated by ÖBB-Infrastruktur AG.

It details the general rules, terms, procedures and criteria governing compensation and capacity allocation. The NWS also contains information required to submit applications for the allocation of train path capacities.

Pursuant to § 59 of the Federal Railways Act EisbG of 1957, the NWS represents the instrument required by Community law, i.e. paragraph 3 of the Directive 2001/14/EC, to ensure non-discriminatory access conditions to the railway undertakings.

1. general information
2. access to the network
3. general information concerning the network
4. allocation of train path capacities
5. services
