Greek Minister: Relaunching railway services key to restoring public's confidence

The authorities’ investigation into the causes of the February 28 fatal train collision at Tempi will be followed through to all the definitive logical conclusions, reiterated Minister of State responsible for transport and infrastructure Giorgos Gerapetritis on Saturday, ANA reports.

Speaking at Saturday’s first assembly of the Hellenic Railways Organization’s (OSE) newly set up Crisis Management Coordination Center, Gerapetritis pointed out that “the new operational framework for relaunching the country’s train services begins next Wednesday, with train itineraries added every five days, so that we have the full schedules operating approximately twenty-five days before Orthodox Easter [April 16].”

The minister added that restarting the country’s railways safely is key to restoring the public’s confidence in using them again.
