Enhancing Eco-Mobility in Austro-Hungarian Border Region: EMAH Project
Initial proposals for the promotion
of eco-mobility in
the Austro-Hungarian border region
EMAH project
Álmos VIRÁG, project leader
Reasons
for
improvements
•
6300 passengers crossed
the border by train (May
2013)
•
49200 vehicles crossed
the border
•
avg. vehicle occupancy
(based on the interviews):
1.74
•
according to th
is
, the
number of passengers of
individual traffic:
85600 ps.

Railway
line
512
: Deutschkreutz
– Ebenfurth [–Wien]
•
Direct trains towards
Eisenstadt
–
At peak hours, every 2nd
train goes to Eisenstadt?
–
Direct buses?
•
More frequent trains at
off-peak times
Railway line 524
: Sopron – Wiener Neustadt
•
Increase in capacity
•
Electrification
–
Newer trains with larger
capacity
–
Possibility to run direct
trains to Győr or
Szombathely
Railway line 530
: Szentgotthárd – Graz
•
New schedule: design of a
zone-based structure
(internal endpoint: Feldbach
or Gleisdorf)
–
Provided that the
electrification and the double-
track sections are completed
Railway line 700: Győr – Bruck/Leitha [–Wien]
•
Direct connections
–
section between
Bruck/Leitha and Wien
would get more crowded
–
equalisation of mileages can
also cause problems
•
Extension of the operation
time
Railway line 731: Fertőszentmiklós – Neusiedl/See
•
More comprehensible and
predictable timetables
–
abolition of the complex,
seasonal constraints
–
trains getting to Hungary
more frequently
•
Refurbishment of the
Hungarian tracks
–
track speed from 60 to 100 km/h
Preliminary s
uggestions for the extension of
the
public bus network
(passenger numbers were calculated for 2x3 hours
–
morning and afternoon peak time
–
by the interviews )

questions and problems
•
Who will perform

?
•
Is
cabotage
possible?
•
Hungary: the transborder traffic can also be ordered as
a
public service
–
How does it work in Austria?
–
Fares
(tariffs structure, discounts)
•
Rate of transport price subsidies?
•
Co-operation of the
regional services
–
Managing of differences in mileages
–
Creation of an integrated schedule
Thanks for your attention!
Questions
?
Initial proposals aim to promote eco-mobility in the Austro-Hungarian border region through improvements in railway lines, such as increasing capacity, electrification, and introducing new schedules. Recommendations include enhancing the public bus network and optimizing train services to accommodate the significant passenger and vehicle traffic between the countries.
