Alcance
ISO/TR 21245-1:2016 aims to identify typical stakeholders of rail projects and their generic needs/interests and does not interfere with existing national and local laws, legal requirements and regulations. It covers only the planning stage of rail projects and does not cover the execution stage. Any type of rail project is included (building a new line, retrofitting or upgrading existing lines or changes of operation or maintenance). In ISO/TR 21245-1:2016, needs/interests of stakeholders are dealt with as issues, which are subject to modification or change by all stakeholders concerned in the project.
