Dutch regulator: Arriva's trains to Paris are allowed in principle
On 2026-09-13, the Dutch Authority for Consumers and Markets (ACM) removed a significant barrier for Arriva’s proposed train service to Paris. The ACM ruled that Arriva’s application for open access to railway tracks is permitted in principle. This decision marks a key step for Arriva, which aims to operate direct trains between the Netherlands and Paris. The ACM’s ruling addresses regulatory requirements, but further steps may be needed before the service can begin. No disputes or uncertainties were mentioned.
