On Efficient Operational Concept of Future High-speed Railway in the Czech Republic
Original language description
The aim of this paper is to elaborate a layout of the first operational concept of Rapid Services with 1 hour system travel time between Praha and Brno, based on Integrated Periodic Timetable and Operational Concept Economy Approach, as defined by the author. Three recent HSR concepts for the Czech Republic are followed-up: operational traffic planning study by Kalcík, Janoš et al. on behalf of Czech Ministry of Transport from 2010, high-speed railway promoting book High Speed Rail Even in the Czech Republic by Šlegr et al. from 2012, and a paper on progress of the official spatial-technical studies for some future Czech high-speed lines by Šulc from 2014. The importance of achievement of 1 hour travel time between the largest agglomerations is briefly presented. The presented methodological approach, although soft and manager-oriented, comprises some firm principles: segmentation of high-speed train offer, so that more expensive rolling stock is not wasted by operation on long conventional line sections, consideration of system travel times for efficient rolling stock circuit, restriction of need for links from high-speed to conventional lines, and utilization of high-speed lines as a "rail highway". This approach is intended to be particularized iteratively, with every application. So, in this paper, first version of Operational Concept Economy Approach is introduced. The key idea is that passengers should be offered such travel times and service intervals (headways) and such number of direct services, which are adequate to their potential demand, but as much synergistic effect as possible should be strived to be achieved for every proposed construction (new or modernized one). Such approach goes towards economic efficiency, which is crucial for political decision for building, let alone EU co-funding of the construction. Results show that an efficient operational concept can be designed not at the expense of runtimes between the largest cities.
