We were founded on 1 July 2001 as RFI - Rete Ferroviaria Italiana SpA, in response to the need to separate the network manager from the provider of transport services. We are responsible for keeping the railway infrastructure in full working order, allowing over 9,000 passenger trains and tons of freight to run on them every day in complete safety.
We ensure the different areas of the country are connected, safely managing railway travel and keeping infrastructure with its complex network of lines and stations in full working order. Every day, we offer accessible services for all types of passenger and contribute to the sustainable development of our country and its mobility system.
We have adopted a strong corporate governance system to ensure responsible and transparent management of our activities, based on a corporate culture founded on integrity and ethics, which enables us to act effectively and achieve our goals while respecting our values and the expectations of our stakeholders.
We contribute to the sustainable development and attractiveness of the country, focusing on meeting the mobility needs of people and logistics to increase the connectivity and integration of the Italian economy.
We manage the railway network and make investments while respecting the environment and complying with the highest safety standards, through an open and transparent dialogue with stakeholders, to create shared value for the community.
As national railway infrastructure manager, we implement the plans and investments defined with the government for the development and maintenance of the network, governed through Programme Contracts.
At the heart of the planning, updating and communication process of the action plans is constant dialogue with public institutions and stakeholders, particularly Railway Undertakings, regional authorities, local bodies and other relevant parties.
