Question 13762 — rail transport

Summary

Ms. Agnès Carel draws the attention of the Minister Delegate to the Minister for Ecological Transition and Territorial Cohesion, responsible for transport, to the significant and constant increase in the prices of train tickets charged by the SNCF. According to INSEE, train ticket prices increased by 7.5% between January 2022 and January 2023. These increases are partly explained by the increase in the price of tolls due by the French National Railway Company (SNCF) to the manager of the French rail network SNCF Réseau. In 2024, these costs are expected to increase by 8% to operate regional express trains (TER) on the national rail network and by 7.6% for high-speed trains (TGV) and Intercités. Added to these increases is the increase in energy costs. There are fears that ticket prices will continue to rise. In Indeed, increases for consumers have already been announced for 2024; 5% more on TGV tickets from January. These significant increases in the price of train tickets are worrying and regrettable because they can dissuade users from using the train in favor of the car and the plane which remains cheaper in certain destinations. In order to promote this sustainable mode of transport, she asks him what Measures could be taken to moderate increases in train ticket prices and allow all users to still have access to these means of transport.
