The decision to intervene in Railway Infrastructures (RI) in a sustainable way is complex, because the involved costs require different assessment levels, given their relevance to all stakeholders in decision-making, and are not always easily quantifiable. Following recent decisions of the EU, it is urgent to carry studies to support RI sustainable interventions. In this context, the use of methodologies based on Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) contributes positively to base decisions on RI investment projects. CBA is a methodology to assess the net economic impact of a public investment project and can be used for a variety of interventions. CBA is based on the conversion to monetary values of all costs and benefits, even when they are intangible. The purpose of a CBA is to evaluate if a project is feasible from the point of view of social welfare through the algebraic sum of their costs and benefits discounted over time. This paper presents a framework for the assessment of RI sustainable projects based on CBA, which integrates the development of community policies and financial instruments. It aims to provide technical support and contribute to the reflection about co-financing rates modulation.

The paper analyzes shortcomings of economic impact studies based mainly on input- output models that are often employed in Russia as well as abroad. Using studies about sport events in the USA and Olympic Games that took place during the last 30 years we reveal advantages of the cost-benefit analysis approach in obtaining unbiased assessments of public investments efficiency; the step-by-step method of cost-benefit analysis is presented in the paper as well. We employ the project of Sochi-2014 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games in Russia to evaluate its efficiency using cost-benefit analysis for five accounts (areas of impact), namely government, households, environment, economic development, and social development, and calculate the net present value of the project taking into account its possible alternatives. In conclusion we suggest several policy directions that would enhance public investment efficiency within the Sochi-2014 Olympics.
