    Explains the methodology used for the survey and provides the results.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    CEN/TC 256/SC 1/WG 28 \'Railway applications/Infrastructure/Track geometry quality\' conducted a survey of the geometric quality of track across European railway networks. This was to get an understanding and overview of the track geometry across Europe in order to support the definition of track geometric quality classes for the writing of EN 13848-6.

    This Technical Report describes the methodology used for the survey and gives the results.
