Description
The St. Poelten railway node project is one of a series of projects to extend and upgrade the Austrian Westbahn railway mainline Salzburg-Linz-Wien (320 km) from originally two tracks to four tracks. It comprises the capacity extension and upgrading of a mainline railway node situated on a Priority TEN, including the remodelling of passenger access facilities.
Objectifs
The project, part of TEN Priority Project No. 17 (Paris-Strasbourg-Stuttgart-Wien-Bratislava), identified in Annex III of the TENs guidelines, contributes to the objective of promoting sustainable transport, as increased rail usage with a shift from road will reduce the environmental impact and road traffic accidents. It also includes components eligible under the heading of urban renewal.
