  • Signalling on the High-Speed Railway Amsterdam–Antwerp
    Computers in Railways XI 243 Towards interoperability on Northwest European railway corridors: signalling on the high-speed railway Amsterdam–Antwerp J. H. Baggen, J. M. Vleugel & J. A. A. M. Stoop Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands Abstract The high-speed railway Amsterdam (The Netherlands)–Antwerp (Belgium) is nearly completed. As part of a TEN-T priority project it will connect to major metropolitan areas in Northwest Europe. In many (European) countries, high-speed railways have been built. So, at first sight, the development of this particular high-speed railway should be relatively straightforward. But the situation seems to be more complicated. To run international services full interoperability is required. However, there turned out to be compatibility problems that are mainly caused by the way decision making has taken place, in particular with respect to the choice and implementation of ERTMS, the new European railway signalling system. In this paper major technical and institutional choices, as well as the choice of system borders that have all been made by decision makers involved in the development of the high-speed railway Amsterdam–Antwerp, will be analyzed. This will make it possible to draw some lessons that might be used for future railway projects in Europe and other parts of the world. Keywords: high-speed railway, interoperability, signalling, metropolitan areas. 1 Introduction Two major new railway projects were initiated in the past decade in The Netherlands, the Betuweroute dedicated freight railway between Rotterdam seaport and the Dutch-German border and the high-speed railway between Amsterdam Airport Schiphol and the Dutch-Belgian border to Antwerp (Belgium).

  • Post-2020 Multiannual Financial Framework: Views of the Rail Sector
    VIEWS OF THE RAIL SECTOR POST-2020 MULTIANNUAL FINANCIAL FRAMEWORK 0 For the Commission, rail is a key sector: You are the centre piece of our decarbonisation strategy. We want to see more people travelling by train and more companies choosing to move their goods by rail. I have faith in the sector, I fully support you: but I am relying on you to keep your side of the bargain. Violeta Bulc, EU Commissioner of Transport Innotrans, September 2016 In the context of the budgetary discussions for the post-2020 period, we – the European associations representing the rail sector – would like to explain in this joint paper why it is important for the European Union to continue investing in rail projects, particularly considering the benefits of rail transport for the economy and the whole society. Besides illustrating the European added value of rail projects, the paper also highlights the considerable financial resources still required to complete the TEN-T rail network, modernise and digitalise rail infrastructure in Europe for the benefit of Europe’s citizens. Investments in rail as a key lever for social inclusion, economic growth, and environmental sustainability As the greenest1 and safest mode of transport, rail provides a significant contribution to the EU economy and to the completion of the Single Market. To enhance Europe’s competitiveness internationally, it is therefore necessary to further develop the efficiency of the rail system for the benefit of all EU citizens. There is an enormous need for investment in rail transport at all levels: European, national, regional and urban. The European Commission estimates that €430 billion is needed in rail investment by 2030.2 The resources allocated to rail transport in the post-2020 Multiannual Financial Framework will play a key role in ensuring that the transport system as a whole efficiently supports EU’s economic growth.

  • The Relation Between Port Competition and Hinterland Connections
    1 THE RELATION BETWEEN PORT COMPETITION AND HINTERLAND CONNECTIONS THE CASE OF THE ‘IRON RHINE’ AND THE ‘BETUWEROUTE’ Hilde Meersman, Tom Pauwels, Eddy Van de Voorde and Thierry Vanelslander Department of Transport and Regional Economics University of Antwerp, Prinsstraat 13, B-2000 Antwerp, Belgium Abstract This paper discusses the relationship between port competition and hinterland connections. The analysis presented is based on expected trends in maritime transport and the likely consequences for seaports. The inauguration of the Betuweroute in 2007 offered the port of Rotterdam additional rail capacity to Germany. The port of Antwerp, meanwhile, is pressing for the reactivation of the Iron Rhine, a direct rail link to that same German hinterland. Research has shown capacity to be the key to success, both in maritime throughput and in hinterland transportation services. Keywords Port competition , hinterland connection, capacity, Iron Rhine, Betuweroute 1. Introduction Within the Hamburg-Le Havre range, the ports of Antwerp and Rotterdam are engaged in a competitive struggle involving two railway lines to the German hinterland. In 2007, the Netherlands inaugurated the so-called Betuweroute, connecting Rotterdam with the Ruhr Area in Germany. Belgium, for its part, intends to reactivate the Iron Rhine, an existing line between Antwerp and the Ruhr. So here we have two transport projects to the same destination zone: a perfect illustration of how port competition can manifest itself on the battlefield of hinterland transportation. In

  • Railterminal in Gelderland
    Bijlage bij Statenbrief - zaaknummer 2012-020480 Railterminal in Gelderland Aanleiding en vertrekpunt Provinciale Staten hebben op 25 april 2012 het Strategisch uitvoeringsprogramma Logistiek en Goederenvervoer 2012-2015, “Logistiek als Gelderse Motor”, vastgesteld. Het programma is opgebouwd rond twee actielijnen: 1. Het voorzien in een goed toegerust multimodaal vervoernetwerk 2. Het versterken van de logistiek als economische sector Een speerpunt binnen de actielijn 1 is het benutten van de Betuweroute. Het gaat om het creëren van een mogelijkheid om containers om te slaan van spoor naar de weg en vice versa. Er is toen een voorkeur voor een locatie bij Valburg uitgesproken. In het programma is aangegeven dat er een verkenning wordt uitgevoerd om te bepalen of een ROP tot de ruimtelijke, financiële en maatschappelijke mogelijkheden behoort en tot voldoende regionale spin-off leidt. Tot medio 2012 is er sprake geweest van een duidelijke samenwerking met een marktpartij (RSC Rotterdam) waarmee samen gewerkt is aan de invulling van de locatie en het opstellen van de businesscase. Vanwege gewijzigde economische omstandigheden heeft deze marktpartij zich terug getrokken. Hiermee is een nieuwe situatie ontstaan. We hebben getracht om een nieuwe marktpartij te vinden die het bedachte concept zou willen overnemen. Deze is toen echter niet direct gevonden. Daarmee komen we uit bij een nieuw startpunt rond de ontwikkeling van het Railopstappunt in Valburg. Bij dit nieuwe startpunt hebben we ook de nieuwe initiatieven betrokken voor het vestigen van railterminals elders in Gelderland. Door het wegvallen van de vorige marktpartij heeft de aangegeven verkenning rond het ROP Valburg een andere uitwerking gekregen. Het vertrekpunt bestaat nu uit het invullen van vier opgaven: - Op zoek gaan naar een nieuwe marktpartij - Ontwikkelen van een nieuw exploitatieconcept - In beeld brengen van de ladingstromen - Het vaststellen van de juiste locatie en inrichting De uitkomst van deze opgaven hebben de input geleverd voor deze notitie.

    Cost Overrun in the Public Sector, A Case Study Dr Maarten S.A. Vrijland, University of Twente, Enschede, The Netherlands Summary The case studied is that of the Betuwe Route, a new 160 km double track railway, exclusively for freight, that will link the Port of Rotterdam with her European hinterland. This megaproject has been strongly disputed ever since it’s conception. Government, opponents and proponents have spent tremendous efforts in studies and reports. In most cases these are easily accessible to the general public. At first sight the cost seems to have tripled in ten years. Was it so difficult then to provide a reliable estimate, or should an explanation be sought elsewhere? With this question in mind many reports were studied, and the final conclusion is that not so much the estimators as well as politicians are responsible. Introduction Mid 1997 first ground was broken for the construction of the so called Betuwe Route, a new 160 km double track electrified railroad, exclusively for freight. As from 2006 it will be an addition to existing rail-, road- and water-ways linking the Port of Rotterdam with her European Union hinterland. Most likely the total cost of this civil construction project will exceed 5 milliard. This fact classifies it as a megaproject, less spectacular, but nevertheless in the same order of magnitude as the Channel tunnel between France and England, the Øresund bridge between Denmark and Sweden, or the Three Gorges Dam in China. Such projects tend to have strikingly poor performance records in terms of economy, environment and public support.
