In the same manner, the phenomenon of a “missing link” may be considered as a situation in which the quality of service has extremely low values due to the fact that no direct link exists between two points. As described in the above-mentioned document, as a simplified method, for individual road categories, one may take the following capacities in terms of number of vehicles as the average daily traffic: − 4-lane motorway: 40,000 – 60,000 PCU/24 hrs − roads of 2 lanes: 8,000 – 12,000 PCU/24 hrs As in the case of roads, there are a great number of factors determining the bottlenecks on a railway line. It is practically impossible to concentrate all elements in a single bottleneck measure. In order to reach practical measures it appeared appropriate to take the following capacity limits: TRANS/WP.5/2005/16/Add.8 page 2 − Single track main lines: 1 x 60 – 80 trains/day − Double track main lines: 2 x 100 – 200 trains/day According to that definition, the bottlenecks regarding the Hungarian TEN road network are described below.

  • Regional Statistics
    GÉZA NOVÁK – TAMÁS VARSÁNYI The transport situation in the Great Plain Introduction Today transport plays a crucial role in our socio-economic life. In the two regions which comprise the Great Plain transport as a sector constitutes a significant share of overall GDP (5%). Transport affects the competitiveness of regions and therefore the quality of life. Good transport stimulates company activities, attracts direct investment, improves purchasing and distribution, and enables the realisation of extra income through international trade. Good transportation infrastructure supports the development of rural areas and promotes the convergence of regions. As a result of travelling between settlements or commuting, public transport fosters the mobility of the workforce. The quality of public transport affects employment and schooling in different geographical areas, and access to services which are limited in a given area. This study analyses the transport situation in the Northern Great Plain and Southern Great Plain regions. (The two regions are referred to hereafter as the Great Plain.) The paper presents the structure and quality of the road system, and the accessibility by road of Hungarian settlements. Furthermore, we highlight the features of rail, air and waterway transport. Road transport The role of road transport is salient both in passenger and freight traffic. In Hungary road transport accounts for two thirds of total freight transport and 46% of interurban passenger traffic, and it is the main form of local transport as well. The structure and density of the road network Hungary’s road network has a radial structure with Budapest as its centre, and this structure affects the road system in the Great Plain as well.

  • Appendix 9 Concession Experience in the Road
    Louis Berger S.A. APPENDIX 9 CONCESSION EXPERIENCE IN THE ROAD TRANSPORTATION SECTOR IN CENTRAL EUROPE 1. BACKGROUND Introduction During recent years, the goal in several countries in Central Europe has been to aim to bring an increasing participation of the private sector into the development of transport infrastructure. This has occurred in differing ways, with differing results through the whole spectrum from fully privatised, and public/private partnerships to wholly publicly financed projects. This paper summarises some of the key projects which have been realised, or are under realisation, principally in the countries of Hungary, Poland and Croatia in the Road Transport Sector. The focus therefore is on selected concessions for toll motorways in these countries. Hungary Under the previous government, there was a strong policy towards promoting the development of motorways in the Republic of Hungary on a privately financed basis. With enactment of the Concessions Act, the Ministry of Transport actively promoted the development of several Concessions. Poland In the Republic of Poland, the promotion of new motorways was stimulated by the enactment of the Motorway Act in 1994. However it has taken several years to reach realisation of the first toll motorway. The Act was modified in 1999 in order to favour the developments of public-private partnerships, under the management of the Motorway Agency. Eventually, an operating Concession was agreed as part of the A4 motorway between Krakow and Katowice and the first real concession for construction and realisation of a new motorway was closed in October 2000, for a section of the A2 motorway between Poznan and Konin, on the Berlin-Warsaw axis.

These vehicles are authorized to use the Hungarian toll speedway network’s roads exclusively with pre-purchased – purchased prior to entering a toll speedway section – road use authorization, i.e. e-vignettes. The amount of toll charges depends on the category of the vehicle and the type of the e-vignette. The category of the motor vehicles must be determined according to the official entry that appears in the vehicle registration certificate, based on the maximum permissible gross weight of the motor vehicle and the number of persons it is allowed to transport. From 1 January 2016, changes have been introduced with respect to the toll speedway network and the toll-free sections, therefore, we request you to study the information below in detail. For further details, please visit the www.toll-charge.hu website, where you find the maps of the toll speedway network that may be used with an e-vignette.
