On the new route, passenger trains are scheduled to run at 350 kilometers per hour. The basis of the cooperation between the V4 countries is the concept of common time, so that you can get from Budapest to Bratislava in an hour and a half, to Prague in three and a half hours and to Warsaw in five and a half hours instead of twelve. current.
The investment opens up a whole new dimension to the economic development of Central Europe, as there have been no high-speed trains in the region so far.
On the basis of the feasibility study to be completed next year, it will be possible to start the construction of the domestic section of the planned line between Budapest and Warsaw. The Ministry of Innovation and Technology informed Magyar Hírlap that the feasibility study covers the Hungarian section from a technical point of view, but also examines the V4 countries participating in the cooperation, such as Slovakia, Czech Republic and Poland, in terms of traffic passenger and economy.
Based on the mandate of the Ministry, the study is compiled by Nemzeti Infrastruktúrafejlesztő Zrt. Based on the results, a decision proposal can be prepared for next summer to start the planning necessary to start the investment.
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán spoke about the planned project in the delivery of the new Danube Bridge at the Monastery, and then Péter Szijjártó announced the details. The Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade said about the planned high-speed railway: the Hungarian section will run from Budapest via Mór to Győr and they are negotiating with the Slovaks to transfer the line between Győr and Dunaszerdahely or in Rajka to Slovakia, from Bratislava via Brno and Ostrava. – I would go to Warsaw.
If we do not organize this area between Germany and Russia ourselves, it will be organized by strangers – said Viktor Orbán.
The new line creates an opportunity for trains to stop at Győr, as this is the key to the economic return of the railway line. At the same time, it is still being investigated whether all of this can be achieved by expanding the existing train station, building a new one or possibly building a bypass section together, and the designers will also involve the municipality of Győr in preparing this.
The new line would be built mainly for passenger traffic, but the possibility of freight trains operating on less used sections would also be explored. This would be important because the Budapest-Hegyeshalom line is the busiest in the country, where freight traffic is also significant.
The new route could also make room for the V0 railway line, which also exists as a medium-term development idea, bypassing Budapest, which in turn would be built mainly for freight traffic. The two railway lines meet on a long stretch on a common route, thus providing an economical design.
it can be done.
