  • Cost-Benefit Analysis of Kirkuk Sulymaniya Railway Project
    Journal of Engineering and Development, Vol. 17, No.2, 2013, ISSN 1813‐ 7822 Cost-Benefit Analysis of Kirkuk Sulymaniya Railway Project Lect. Dr. Ali J. Kadhim Lect. Dr.Mohmmad B. Abdljabar Highway and Transportation Dep College of Engineering Univ. of Mustansiriyah Lect. Shatha S. Kareem Highway and Transportation Dep College of Engineering Univ. of Mustansiriyah Abstract The railway network is considered one of the major stone in the economic skeleton in most countries. Herein, the user benefit was investigated when a new railway track is to be installed between Kirkuk and Sulymaniya cities in the north of Iraq. The operating costs of the new railway line are compared with the existing transportation modes that depend only on multilane highway between the two cities. The analysis was done using the related parameters that involved in the cost benefit procedures, beside that this project have the ability of joining Iran with Iraq and consequently joining the Iraqi railways. The results show that when the construction and other initial costs are added the economic evaluation is negative and results no user benefit, while in the real world there are impacts on the development of the society when such transportation projects are installed. This paper concluded that there is a great user benefit in the proposed project when the operating, accidents, time saving costs and the ecological effects are considered, with the excluding of the initial costs as in the case of the roadway construction. This study aims to understanding the effect of adding a new mode of travel (railway travel) and compare its effect with the existing modes (roadway travel) by using the cost-benefit analysis.

Ewadh 2017-2018 • Classification Schemes for Transportation Engineering Railways: Introduction • In this mode of transport, all vehicles use rail tracks to move from one point to another. • Vehicles consist of a long train of coaches attached to a locomotive. • The coaches and the locomotive have steel wheels which run on steel rail tracks. • The locomotive either uses diesel or use electricity as fuel (locomotives which run on coal are hardly used these days). • Since the rail tracks provide a dedicated right-of-way for the train services, these are good for high speed transit facilities. • Trains stop at pre-specified locations called stations. Important aspects related to the railway mode of transport • Safe and efficient operation and control of rail traffic. • Layout of rail tracks. • Structural design of the subgrade on which rail tracks run. • Planning of stations or terminals for railway vehicles. Early Beginnings • By the time steam locomotives came on the scene, in the early nineteenth century, wrought iron rails and later steel rails were developed which were strong enough to support these heavy axle loads without assistance from longitudinal timbers. • In essence the track itself, together with its supports, had and still has the basic function of safely transmitting the loads and forces imposed by passing trains to the ground beneath. • Various other civil engineering skills were also involved in the construction of early railways. These included the building of bridges, tunnels and gravity walls as well as extensive earthworks and drainage.

  • Low Carbon Rail Transport Challenge Action Plan Provisional Copy
    TRANSPORT Low Carbon Rail Transport Challenge Action Plan Provisional copy Action Plan Low Carbon Rail Transport Challenge UIC, the International Railway Association (240 members worldwide, see annex 2), is proposing a transport sector challenge in the framework of the green growth agenda and climate change perspective for 2030 and 2050. This challenge sets out ambitious but achievable targets for improvement of rail sector energy efficiency, reductions in green house gas (GHG) emissions and a more sustainable balance between transport modes. Transport is a key sector of the green economy. Large increases in the demand for transport have been forecast for the coming years, particularly in developing countries. There is a consensus amongst transport research papers and studies (eg UNEP, OECD, IEA) indicating the problem of the “business as usual” pattern and highlighting the need for a more sustainable direction, in particular shifting activity away from high-carbon modes (eg road and air) through medium-long term investments in rail and public transport (modal shift). More sustainable transport systems are required if we want to reach green growth: an acceptable level of GHG reductions (IEA 2012), lower externalities (CE Delft/Fraunhofer ISI/INNFRAS 2011), creation of green jobs (UNEP/ILO 2011, less health costs (WHO 2006 and 2011) social inclusion and economical growth (UNEP,2011). Energy consumption and carbon intensity As a first step of the challenge, the world railway sector has set itself ambitious 2030 and 2050 targets for energy
