The paper deals with comparative analyses of the main competing transport modes in terms of the planned construction of high-speed rail / HSR. In the conditions of the Czech Republic, it is practically only bus transport and individual car transport (including relevant alternative types of transport). In this context, based on available data from traffic statistics, the existing traffic flows in passenger transport on the roads corresponding to the planned HSR routes are analysed. The main goal of the article is to present the results of comparative analyses of transport modes representing the most important potential competitors of the planned HSR and the subsequent synthesis of the obtained results. In accordance with the fact that the key destination is of course Prague, followed by Brno, especially their planned interconnection using HSR (assuming an adequate supply of a competitive solution) has greatest potential for shifting part of demand from bus but also from individual car transport to rail.

Primary Basis

AbstractThe priorities assessment for the planned construction of high-speed rail/HSR in the Czech Republic in terms of impacts on internal and external integration is a though-provoking topic not only from the technical and economic, but also from the social and geographical point of view. Its primary basis is the application of the gravity model, according to which the planned route C Prague-Wien has the most significant potential in passenger transport. Then following routes are A Prague-Berlin, B Prague-München, and D Brno-Katowice. Subsequently, the likely impacts generated by a significant improvement in the quality parameters and hence the competitive position of rail transport were assessed, including the potential for shifting part of the demand from the road and air transport to HSR. Overall, however, it can be stated that the potential impacts of the HSR on the growth of passenger transport in the Czech Republic will not be essential. To perceive the regional impacts of HSR construction, analyses of selected indicators (population density per km2, GDP per capita, unemployment rate) by NUTS 3 regions for the period 2007-2017 were also carried out. From the strategic point of view, the research results did not confirm that the planned construction of the HSR primarily stimulates convergence tendencies in regional development as the main priority of EU regional policy. Rather, it seems more likely that the HSR will stimulate the extraction of economic activity from “rural” regions in favour of metropolitan regions.

The Impact

AbstractThe paper deals with the evaluation of the effectiveness of the construction of high-speed rails/HSR in the Czech Republic with an emphasis on the perception of their potential impact on labour market integration. The introductory part analyses the position of the main Central European metropolises in the HSR network as a tool for transnational integration, where the leading position of German and Swiss metropolises was confirmed. The main goal of the paper is assessing the impact of HSR construction projects on the work attractiveness of Czech metropolitan regions using the model of marginal rate of labour mobility model determined by the ratio of income and cost increases (including variant scenarios of lost time costs as negative externality). Its application combines economic and geographic analysis and thus contributes to the integration of space and time into economic theory. The performed analyses demonstrate the most significant positive impacts of the construction of HSR on the work attractiveness of Prague, followed by Brno. Regarding the adequate effects of the operating speed, it is possible to evaluate them as secondary due to the small distances of the affected residential centres. Overall, we expect that the implementation of the discussed projects will not have a significant impact on the labour mobility of the population and it is therefore necessary to pay attention to their other benefits.

Management Perspective

High-speed rail lines should make it possible to fully replace air transport over the medium distances of Europe (about 500 km). In the Czech Republic, they are beginning to design. Estimates suggest that in five years, the first sections could begin to physically originate and within ten years, they will begin to ride on them. Is it possible that the scenario and the continuous extension of deadlines accompanying the completion of the backbone network will be repeated? This article discusses the options from the project management perspective and the idea of construction 4.0 to prevent this.

The development of high-speed railway has been very fast, while there are still existing many problems to be further studied and discussed, especially the design of high-speed railway Train stops program. The research of classification of high-speed passenger railway nodes has a vital significance for forecast of high-speed railway passenger flow, passenger train operation plan, evaluation and optimization and so on, especially for highspeed railway stopping schedule .This paper analyzes the significance and methods of high-speed passenger railway nodes classification, and designs high-speed rail train line stops program based on the classification. Finally, analyzing the case on the basis of Beijing-Guangzhou high-speed railway, a train stops program will be made bases on the classification of Beijing-Guangzhou high-speed railway passenger transport nodes to verify the feasibility of this study.

The aim of this article is to deal with the issue of high-speed railway lines (HSL) in the Czech Republic in response to the Fast connections conception ("Rychlá spojení" in Czech, abbreviation "RS"). Currently the RS1, RS2 and RS4 projects are the most watched during the preparation of the HSL network construction. The authors would like to focus on this issue from the wider point of view and to assess possible impact on the current lines of long-distance trains, the location of graphical timetable nodes and the way of the transport service on the area of the state.
