Regions road and railway transport co-operation

Abstract

Fundamental factor for region development is, except proper localisation, natural resources, the qualified labour and suitable fiscal policy - convenient and efficient communication. Therefore, very important is to take actions to generate suitable connections between road and railway transport. On Lower Silesia trackage is strongly developed, similarly, nodal points access to the relevant routes. Because of railway regress, particularly in passenger transport, it has been created an idea to use a railway potential for develop regional and agglomeration transport. Initially, there is necessity to assess the trackage structure and analyse its potential to improve passenger transport. Obviously, it requires many analyses and general project, as well as large expenditures for new investments in railway transport.
