A chapter in Spatial and transport infrastructure development in Europe: Example of the Orient/East-Med Corridor, 2019, pp 215-230 from ARL – Akademie für Raumentwicklung in der Leibniz-Gemeinschaft

Abstract: This report describes the relation between the core network corridor Orient/East- Med and the elimination of one serious bottleneck with the example of the planned new railway line Dresden-Prague. In cooperation between the Free State of Saxony and the Czech Republic first preplanning studies were elaborated for a new cross border track, which will bring the regions closer together and has positive effects for a modal shift to rail as well as for the regional economy and development. The basis of this report are results of the study for the new line from 2015. An incorporation of interim new proposals for a route guidance has not been made due to the lack of depth of investigation of these alternatives at the moment.
