It is as though the several colonial empires had become static entities upon the close of the 19th century and that nothing of consequence had transpired in any of them in the decade and a half prior to the outbreak of that global struggle marking the end of an era in Modern Imperialism. Nothing is~ of course, farther fro~ the truth. I have, therefore, suggested to my former student and present colleague in the field of colonial studies, Professor Lowell Ragatz~ of The George Washington University in the United States, that he write a small volume filling this singular gap in the writings on modern empire building.

  • IP0335-RPT-TR-15 Technical Note 10 NA RAIL
    4.5 TUNISIA 4.5.1 Existing Situation The Tunisian Railway Network of SNCFT (Societe Nationale de Chemins de Fer Tunisien) is quite extensive in the north of the country, but there are no railways south and east of Gabès – though extensions to Mednine, Zarzis and the Libyan border are planned. The main route on the Tunisian Railways Network eastward is from Gharadimaou on the Algerian Border to Tunis (Route 18), and then Southward via Sousse (Routes 19 and 20) and Sfax (Route 21A) to Gabès (Route 22). This route could be continued onward to Libya via the proposed extension to Ras Ajdir (Routes 23 and 24). In addition to this, there are a number of subsidiary routes as shown at Figure 4.5.1. Proposed new lines are also shown. There is 1,674 km of metre-gauge route, and 468km of standard-gauge (plus 10km of dual / mixed gauge). Currently, rolling stock differences prevent through running between the northern and southern metre-gauge systems. 65 km of the metre-gauge railway is electrified at 25kv AC. There is a limited amount of double-track, including the line from Tunis to Sousse and Monastir (Routes 19 and 20). The passenger and freight figures for 1998 to 2002 are given below:- Table 4.5.1: Tunisia – Passengers and Freight (1998-2002) 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 Passengers (M) 32.4 34.4 35.6 36.9* 36.9* Passengers – km(M) 1,128 1,197 1,258 1,280* 1,280* Freight (M Tonnes) 12.54 12.55 12.08 12.05 12.2 Freight (M Tonne – km) 2,347 2,364 2,282 2,273 2,285 * From UACF statistics – data for 2002 has not been changed from that for 2001.

  • Chapter 6 Bridges
    Chapter 6 Bridges Many bridges have been built to allow roads and rails to cross the Mejerda River and its tributaries in Zone D2, but it is clear that they need to be improved (replaced, raised) because there are places where the design river channel of this Study will not have sufficient downflow capacity. Thus, as in the Master Plan, this Study includes improvements to existing bridges and the building of new bridges to accompany river improvements. The 11 bridges investigated in the Master Plan will be improved to accommodate changes to the design high-water level and channels. This section covers investigations of the bridge improvement plans required to improve the river, conducted according to the following procedures: 1. Fully understanding the current state of existing bridges and the capabilities they lack with respect to river improvements 2. Investigation of policy for improving existing bridges, selection of places in which to build new bridges 3. Improvement plans for existing bridges 4. Plans to build new bridges Since the bridges in question are used differently for roads, highways and railways, this section also includes information on various design standards. 6-1 6.1 Fully Understanding the Current State of Existing Bridges and the Capabilities They Lack with Respect to River Improvements 6.1.1 Current State of Existing Bridges Basic information about existing bridges was gathered prior to investigating bridge improvement policy. In addition to gathering the basic bridge specifications that serve as basic information, the team also surveyed existing structures and organizations that manage structures and verified the extent of damage at each site.
