WHAT?

… are the characteristics of the Rhine Danube Corridor

Conclusions from the 1st phase of the study on the R-D Corridor

3


Situation of the corridor at a glance (general)

� The corridor connects 9 Member States and 4 Third Countries

� The corridor provides the priority transport infrastructure for 90m inhabitants in the EU Member States and for 110m

inhabitants (including Third Countries)

� The regional GDP of EU Member States is 1757.7 bn EUR;

� The regional GDP of all corridor countries is 1825 bn EUR.

� Close cooperation with the EU Strategy for the Danube

Region and the RFC 7 and 9

�Keeping the TEN-T and CEF Guidelines in mind


TMS demand drivers

� Population on the corridor:

• Centred in urban nodes; DE: large number of urban areas.

� In future socio-demographic pattern will not change.

• Population decline expected for DE, HU,

RO, SK, except strongly urbanised areas.

• Modest population growth expected for AT, the Strasbourg area and CZ.

� GDP forecast for the corridor

• 1 and 2% GDP growth per year in terms of GDP in current prices.

• Existing economic difference/gap between

the eastern and western part of the corridor will not bridged by 2030.

TMS freight transport baseline

� Current modal split:

58% for road, 28% rail and 14% IWT.

� Growth rates: The traffic of the Eastern part of the corridor has higher growth rates. Yet the existing situation of Western high volumes is expected to maintain.

� International traffic (import, exports and transit) is expected to grow

in all forecasts. This creates a higher opportunity for intermodal operations.

� In baseline scenarios Freight always has to compete with roads current dominant position:

• Most national scenarios assume a continuation of trends and do not assume a specific

modal shift. These assumptions are beneficial for road transport.

• The infrastructure developments are taken into account in different scenarios, but in no study a full implementation of the work plan is assumed.

� Forecasts indicate that implementing rail and IWT projects

do improve modal share.

CS branch: 1,150 km, 3 countries, 3 power systems, 3 signalling systemsAll corridor lines allow for passenger & freight traffic

� Achievement level of required TEN-T standards (= corridor objectives)

Electrification: > 90% Axle load >=22.5 tonnes: ~70%

Line speed >= 100 km/h: > 90%Train length >= 740m: ~50%

ERTMS: < 10%

� Achievement level of other relevant parameters

Loading gauge GC: ~60%

Double track: ~80%Max inclination <= 12.5 %: ~70%

� Hot spots

Areas with high capacity utilisation (consider different determination methods)Areas with low technical standards (esp. no electrification, single track)

Areas with missing ERTMS implementationMissing links (esp. related to high speed lines with finalisation date >2020/open)

� Approved project lists coordinated with member states

� most of the identified problems are tackled by dedicated projects

Hungary: Preliminary project list


Corridor work plan: agreed priorities

based on TEN-T Regulation

2nd Phase of the study 9/2015-12/2017; resulting in the

updating of the Work Plan of the Coordinator

1. Investing in cross-border links for rail, inland waterways and road with highest European added-value

2. Eliminating the bottlenecks

3. Fostering the restoration of good navigability

conditions on the Danube

4. Ensuring multimodal approach

5. Supporting the realization of modern and efficient logistics nodes for a real intermodal network

6. Striving for a very high level of standards.

Challenges on the Project

� Project is part of the core network (OEMC)

� Requirements of the regulation 1530/2013 to be observed

� Large number of unresolved questions when starting the project

� Technical limitations due to topography and high building density in Sofia area

� Solving the question how to reach the infrastructure requirements for core network of the TEN-T Regulation (Art.39)

� Building capacity to local planners and coordination with international consultants

� Limited capacity of the beneficiary/PIU in project management

� Current low traffic figures hardly provide reasonable financial figures
