Study on Border Crossing Practices in International Railway Transport
STUDY ON BORDER CROSSING PRACTICES IN INTERNATIONAL RAILWAY TRANSPORT Bangkok, 2018 This study was prepared by Transport Division ESCAP. The draft of the study was prepared by Mr. Goran Andreev, Consultant, under the supervision of Mr. Sandeep Raj Jain, Economic Affairs Officer, Transport Facilitation and Logistics Section (TFLS), Transport Division. Overall guidance was provided by Mr. Li Yuwei, Director, Transport Division. The study extensively benefited from the visits made by the ESCAP study team to several border crossings (in chronological order): Sukhbaatar (Mongolia), Dong Dang (Viet Nam), Padang Besar (Malaysia), Sarkhas (Islamic Republic of Iran), Rezekne (Latvia). The assistance provided by the railways, customs and other authorities at these border crossings, their officers and staff for the study is duly appreciated. Acknowledgments are also extended to the representatives of Intergovernmental Organisation for International Carriage by Rail (OTIF) and Organisation for Co- operation between Railways (OSJD), for their constructive comments on the draft Study and the contribution in providing valuable inputs on the publication.

Belt and Road Transport Corridors: Barriers and Investments
Munich Personal RePEc Archive Belt and Road Transport Corridors: Barriers and Investments Lobyrev, Vitaly and Tikhomirov, Andrey and Tsukarev, Taras and Vinokurov, Evgeny Eurasian Development Bank, Institute of Economy and Transport Development 10 May 2018 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/86705/ MPRA Paper No. 86705, posted 18 May 2018 16:33 UTC BELT AND ROAD TRANSPORT CORRIDORS: BARRIERS AND INVESTMENTS Authors: Vitaly Lobyrev; Andrey Tikhomirov (Institute of Economy and Transport Development); Taras Tsukarev, PhD (Econ); Evgeny Vinokurov, PhD (Econ) (EDB Centre for Integration Studies). This report presents the results of an analysis of the impact that international freight traffic barriers have on logistics, transit potential, and development of transport corridors traversing EAEU member states. The authors of EDB Centre for Integration Studies Report No. 49 maintain that, if current railway freight rates and Chinese railway subsidies remain in place, by 2020 container traffic along the China-EAEU-EU axis may reach 250,000 FEU. At the same time, long-term freight traffic growth is restricted by a number of internal and external factors. The question is: What can be done to fully realise the existing trans-Eurasian transit potential? Removal of non-tariff and technical barriers is one of the key target areas. Restrictions discussed in this report include infrastructural (transport and logistical infrastructure), border/customs-related, and administrative/legal restrictions. The findings of a survey conducted among European consignors is a valuable source of information on these subjects. The authors present their recommendations regarding what can be done to remove the barriers that hamper international freight traffic along the China-EAEU-EU axis. -
Evaluation of Rail-Based Multimodal Transportation of Biofuels
Evaluation of Rail-based Multimodal Transportation of Biofuels Behzad Kordnejad a, Sebastiaan Meijer a a Department of Transport Science, KTH Royal Institute of Technology SE-10044, Teknikringen 72, Stockholm, Sweden E-mail: [email protected], Phone: +46 (0) 8 790 88 17 Abstract This paper aims to analyse the internal and external factors influencing rail-based multimodal transportation of wood biofuel i.e. wood raw materials e.g. chips and branches that are used for production of energy. The analysis is conducted for the Swedish market and by using a bi-sectional qualitative framework. First, a STEEP analysis is conducted in order to analyse the external factors affecting railway transportation of biofuel. STEEP is an acronym for: Social, Technological, Economical, Environmental and Political and it is used as a strategic tool to analyse external factors that influence a business. Second, the internal factors are evaluated through the three main dimensions of sustainability: environmental, economic and social. In essence, it is the factors affecting rail transportation of biofuel and the inherent capability of the rail mode that are addressed. Albeit the two methods are to their nature qualitative approaches, the evaluation is complemented by quantitative analysis of the niche market as well as a case study. A main conclusion from the qualitative analysis is that rail transportation of biofuel faces a number challenges that in many cases are related to a relatively high share of fixed costs and operational inflexibility. The main drivers for it are commonly associated with economies of scale and the relatively low environmental impact. Estimates from the case study show that the break-even distance i.e. -
