About this statute

This section defines railway- and road-related terms used in the law. Section 4 classifies the rail network into the main network and the rest of the network, and gives the Ministry of Transport and Communications power to issue regulations on which lines belong to the main network and on the main network’s service level. Rail infrastructure must be developed, maintained and planned so it supports transport goals, land-use goals, lower emissions, digitalisation, safety and efficient service development; railways may be built only in the stated circumstances and not contrary to a binding plan. When plans are prepared, the railway manager must cooperate with regional councils, municipalities, regional ELY centres, and other authorities. A railway investigation plan must include the required analyses, route and impact assessments, mitigation possibilities, a preliminary cost estimate, and a description of how national and regional transport system plan goals have been taken into account.
