High speed trains
The 'Train a Grande Vitesse' network, the first high-speed train network, was created in France in the 1970s. Originally intended to connect certain regions of France, it has since grown to connect it to other nations, including Germany and England.

Concorde
The first aeroplane designed to carry passengers was the Concorde. French and British aircraft firms constructed it. The first time it crossed was on September 26, 1973. On January 21, 1976, it began the first scheduled passenger operation in history. It was flown all over the world and further routes were added.

Transport Act
he Transport Act of 1980 removed the need for licenses for coaches and trips longer than thirty miles, which promoted competition between private and public transportation providers.

Deregulation of EU Air Travel.
Before 1987, when EU air travel became irregular UK airlines were limited to flying out of and back to the UK. They were also not permitted to open an airport base abroad of the EU. This meant that EU airlines could open offices wherever in Europe, allowing them to have bases all over the continent. Low-cost airlines were also able to develop as a result of these airlines' ability to fly anywhere in the world and make stops at their bases.
