To achieve that aim, the Directive lays down the criteria and procedures necessary for the adoption of the technical specifications for interoperability, in particular as regards the structural sub-systems (infrastructures, energy, supervision, control/signalling and rolling stock). From the point of view of infrastructure, high-speed lines should consist of: - lines specially built for high speed equipped for speeds generally equal to or greater than 250 km/h; - lines specially upgraded for high speed equipped for speeds of the order of 200 km/h; - lines specially upgraded for high speed which are of a special nature on account of topographical, relief or urban environment difficulties on which the speed must be adapted on a case-by-case ...[+++] basis. From the point of view of rolling stock, high-speed advanced-technology trains should be designed in such a way as to guarantee safe, uninterrupted travel: - at a speed of at least 250 km/h on the lines specially built for high speed, while allowing speeds in excess of 300 km/h in appropriate circumstances; - at a speed of the order of 200 km/h on specially upgraded existing lines; - at the highest possible speed on other lines. Once formally adopted, the common position will be forwarded to the European Parliament under the cooperation procedure.
