Description

Rehabilitation and modernisation of core Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T) railway infrastructure from Devínska Nová Ves in Slovakia to the borders of Austria and Czech Republic.

Objectifs

The investments will ensure compliance with the applicable TEN-T standards. After rehabilitation and modernisation, it is expected that maximum speeds on the line will increase significantly on the majority of improved sections, from presently 120-140 km/h to up to 200 km/h. Consequently, transport benefits are expected from the removal of bottlenecks, shorter and more reliable travel times, increased safety and improved railway services.
