question text	To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they consider that European Train Control System (ETCS) level 3 signalling will be installed successfully on the complete United Kingdom rail network within the 15 year timescale to which Network Rail is committed; when the European Commission issued the latest specification for this; and what consideration they have given to contingency plans to retain existing signalling if ETCS level 3 operation is delayed.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/03/2015 answer text <p>The current national deployment plan for ETCS is based upon Level 2 technology and not Level 3. The European specifications for ETCS Level 3 are not yet fully complete. We await timescales from the European Commission on when the specifications for ETCS Level 3 will become available.</p> answering member printed Baroness Kramer question first answered 09/03/2015 15:59:52 answering member 1557 label Biography information for Baroness Kramer

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/03/2015 answer text <p>I am aware that there is currently very little evidence of Level 3 of the European Traffic Management System (ERTMS) successfully deployed on a mixed traffic railway. For that reason it does not feature as a key aspect of the ERTMS deployment plans on the rail network.</p> answering member printed Baroness Kramer question first answered 09/03/2015 15:57:46 answering member 1557 label Biography information for Baroness Kramer
