Naples Hub

Naples Hub The Naples Hub constitutes one of the key points on the national railway system, on which it represents the crossroads, be it for the numerous significant lines coming from other national and regional centres, or for the High Speed system. 

Building the lines necessary for High Speed will recover capacity on the existing railway network to upgrade regional and district passenger traffic and freight traffic. Furthermore, the new operational margins, together with the possibility of separating and channelling traffic by main lines and by supply levels, resulting from the work planned on this Hub, shall facilitate improving traffic fluidity and reduce conflicts between long haul passenger traffic, regional traffic and freight traffic. 

Thanks to the above, the infrastructural and technological state of the Naples Hub, once modernised, will make it possible to achieve an operational model the primary aim of which is to implement a transport system characterised by:
high intermodal and plurimodal integration
increase in the capacity of the system
high standard of service
To achieve the aims outlined above, the following infrastructural upgrade and technological work has been planned: 
technological/performance work on large hubs (Rome, Milan, Naples) phase:
the work, essentially technological in nature, consists in: completing the technological renovation of the hub; completing automation of the command and control facilities for the governing installations; installing safety features and signalling installations to keep the hub lines’ capacity and performance in line, in terms of the frequency and speed of the service, with the lines’ commercial specialisation
