CORRIDOR X ALIGNMENT
Main Axis: Salzburg Ljubljana Zagreb Beograd Nis Skopje Veles Thessaloniki Branch A: Graz (Austria) Maribor (Slovenia) Zagreb (Croatia) Branch B: Budapest (Hungary) Novi Sad (F.R. Yugoslavia) Beograd (F.R. Yugoslavia) Branch C: Nis (F.R. Yugoslavia) Sofia (Bulgaria) and further via Corridor IV to Istanbul Branch D: Veles (F.Y.R.O.M.) Bitola (F.Y.R.O.M.) Florina (Greece) and further via Florina Kozani (via Egnatia) to Igoumenitsa
Road Corridor X consists of a total length of 2299,6 km, as follows: Main Axis: 1451,4 km Branch A: 163,4 km Branch B: 352,9 km Branch C: 191,8 km Branch D: 140,1 km Permitted maximum speed along the road axis: 120km/h (in most of the parts). The axis consists of highways or motorways. 53,8% of the road network consists of motorways. 32,7% of the Corridor X road network will be reconstructed or upgraded by the end of 2005.
Rail Corridor X consists of a total length of 2528,2 km, as follows: Main Axis: 1742,3 km Branch A: 154,3 km Branch B: 305,6 km Branch C: 161,0 km Branch D: 165,0 km The whole axis consists of single and double tracks lines per direction in a proportion of 64% and 36% respectively 89% of the total length of the Axis is electrified. 10% of the Corridor X rail network will be reconstructed or upgraded by the end of 2010.
MAIN RESULTS OF THE SURVEY: General description of the existing situation (1/2)
The road main Corridor X and branch A is generally in good geometrical, maintenance and operational condition, and it consists of highways and motorways, in a proportion of 28,4% and 71,6% respectively.
At the moment 66,4% of the main Corridor X and branch A has been constructed with two lanes per direction and is characterized by operational speed over 100km/h. Works are taking place concerning the upgrade and the rehabilitation of the axis.
The rail network (both main and branch A) of this northern part of the Corridor is in accordance to the road one, but branch A does not run through Croatia. It consists of 65,2% dual-track infrastructure, and maintenance is considered medium in Croatia and high in Austria and Slovenia. The running time for passenger trains on the main part of the corridor in Slovenia is 2,5 hours and for freight is 3 hours. The delays observed at the Dobova (SlovenianCroatian border) custom control are usually 0,5 hours for the passenger trains and 1 hour for freight trains.
Delays at the other border crossings are estimated to be 30 min maximum for passenger trains.
For the freight trains the maximum delay observed at the Austrian-Slovenian and the Croatian-Yugoslavian borders is approximately 1 hour.
MAIN RESULTS OF THE SURVEY: General description of the existing situation (2/2)
Hungarys part of Corridor X is branch B that links Budapest to Belgrade. In a total length of 353km, the branch consists of motorways (97km) and highways (256km), with permitted speed that varies between 80-120km/h. The Hungarian part will be fully constructed as motorway by the end of 2005. The rail branch B of the corridor ends up at Novi Sad (upgrade needed has been estimated to be completed by 2010). The running time in the Hungarian territory is 3 hours for passenger trains and 5 hours for freight trains.
The delays at the Hungarian-Yugoslavian border (Kelebia) are 50 min for passenger trains and 180-250 min for freight trains.
The rail Corridor X infrastructure has been estimated to be reconstructed/upgraded by the year 2010 in Yugoslavia, and by the year 2004 in Bulgaria. It should be mentioned that the traction system of branch C is not electrified but diesel. More than half of the road Corridor X in F.Y.R.O.M. and in Greece is not a motorway. It ends up to Thessaloniki and to Florina through its branch D. It also crosses with Egnatia. The rail infrastructure is 100% single track. At present, the delay for the border crossing from F.Y.R.O.M. to Greece has been estimated to be 5 hours.
MAIN RESULTS OF THE SURVEY: Road Corridor X expected situation by the year 2005
Main axis: 90% motorways (+18%) Branch : 90% motorways (+35%) Branch B: 100% motorways (+72%) Branch C: 74% motorways (+48%) Branch D: No improvement
Hungary: 100% motorways Yugoslavia: 100% motorways Croatia, Slovenia: Almost 100% motorways
MAIN RESULTS OF THE SURVEY: Rail Corridor X expected situation by the year 2010
Main axis: +10% double track alignment Branch : +10% double track alignment Branch B: +49% double track alignment Branch C: +53% electrified lines Branch D: +88,5% electrified lines
Hungary: 100% double track alignment Yugoslavia: slide increase of double tracks F.Y.R.O..: Full electrification Greece: increase of double tracks (Main axis)
CONCLUSIONS (1/2)
PAN-EUROPEAN RAIL CORRIDOR X 35,8% is double track (this means that about 2/3 of the railway axis need to be improved in terms of double track infrastructure). 11,3% still needs electrification. PAN-EUROPEAN ROAD CORRIDOR X 46,2% is single carriageway. SITUATION PER COUNTRY The whole railway network (Main part and branches) in Austria, Hungary and Slovenia is now electrified, while the respective percentage is 84,3% in Croatia, 88,1% in Yugoslavia, 74,1% in Bulgaria, 60,7% in F.Y.R.O.M. and 81,2% in Greece. The transformation of the existing road network to motorway standards is a more crucial task in some countries where more than half of the road network is not a motorway nowadays (e.g., in Slovenia 59,5%, in Croatia 25,9%, in Yugoslavia 52,2%, in Hungary 41,9%, in F.Y.R.O.M. 63,8% and in Greece 51%).
CONCLUSIONS (2/2)
The improvement of the current infrastructure does not necessarily mean the overall improvement in the operation of the Corridor, unless specific measures are implemented at cross border stations. Therefore special attention must be paid to the improvement of the cross border stations processes since substantial benefits can be obtained at relatively low cost. Generally, the delays at the border-crossings along Corridor X must be reduced according to the AGTC treaty (European Agreement on Important International Combined Transport Lines and Related Installations), which imposes a maximum delay limit of 30 minutes. Corridor X should be upgraded at fully operational level through the cooperation and coordination of the concerned countries, in the framework of the stabilization process in the Southeastern Europe and the European Union, and in order to serve the international transportation. Cooperation in the sector of transportation and economic activities will bring the nations together, harmonize their relationships and contribute to a common set of objectives for the development of the region. Common will for stability and development, should open the horizons for a global utilization of Corridor X not only by the neighboring countries but countries of other continents too.

*The passenger and freight flows in period 1990-2000 were dropped by 50% (as concluded by EIB also in the preliminary report - November 2000). The flows in FYROM for 1990 are estimated proportionally, if we assume that in 2000 the percentage of incoming flows by alternative routes are equal to the percentage of flows that in 1990 prefered Corridor X in absence of border-crossing procedures. A study by the FYROM railway authorities forecasts 5570000tn/year for the main part of the Corridor in FYROM. A traffic study by the Yugoslav railway authorities (1985) for the section Stara Pazova - H/Y Border (Branch B), forecasts 6202000 passengers in 2010 and 7281000 passengers in 2020 (optimistic scenario), and 4987000 passengers in 2010 and 5736000 passengers in 2020 (pessimistic scenario).
