Lieber’s grandparents emigrated from Eastern Europe at the turn of the 20th century, settling in New York City, where he was born and raised. Mr. Lieber lived in Hungary in the early 1990s, teaching English and researching the first edition of this book. He lives in Boston now, where he is a housing lawyer. Christina Shea served as a Peace Corps volunteer in Hungary in the early 1990s. Subsequently, she directed Peace Corps language-training programs in Lithuania and Kyrgyzstan. She is the author of the novel Moira’s Crossing (St. Martin’s Press 2000). A resident of Boston, she teaches at Lesley University and Franklin W. Olin College of Engineering. Erzsébet Barát was born in Kunhegyes, a small town in the Great Hungarian Plain. She currently splits her time between Szeged, where she is an associate professor of English at Attila József Uni­ versity, and Budapest, where she is on the faculty of the Gender Studies Department at Central European University. She earned her Ph.D. in Linguistics from Lancaster Uni­ versity, in England. Her dissertation concerns the oral histories of Hungarian women. This book is dedicated to the memory of David M. Shea, a man of boundless intellect, deep compassion and faith, and an abiding curiosity about the world. Acknowledgments The authors, as always, wish to thank their many friends and helpers in Hungary, includ­ ing Linda Silaghi, Kata Pócs, and the Bereczki family. And finally, we wish to acknowl­ edge Aryeh T. Lieber, Marcel M. Lieber, and Raphael S. Lieber for being such curious and bright-eyed boys. 00 549944 FM.qxd 3/18/04 10:42 AM Page viii An Invitation to the Reader In researching this book, we discovered many wonderful places—hotels, restaurants, shops, and more.

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.

  • 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.
