By around 2025, the over 100 projects included in FDRI will have laid the groundwork for:

• using 400-metre double-decker trains on the west-east axis
• offering more long-distance services
• eliminating capacity bottlenecks on the lines serving the NRLA tunnels at Gotthard and Ceneri (north-south axis)
• a more stable timetable
• punctual services despite increased rail traffic
• a more secure energy supply in the SBB power grid
