Corridor V as being agreed at the Helsinki conference in 1997 when the whole set of Pan European Transport Corridors was agreed upon

By the decision on Priority Projects the corridor V was extended to Lyon. That finally might give us the following image of important interconnections of the Corridor V in the region

Focus on Corridor V




from an anti-crisis perspective

Nowadays, by the regulation of the European Parliament and the Council on Railway network for freight competitiveness the rail part of Corridor was even extended to Almeira and Valencia in Spain. The similar development might be indicated on all important transport axes throughout EU all aimed to raise the importance of the railway transport and increased development of co-modatlity. In parallel to above efforts by the glance of the EUROSTAT figures we are faced with the following situation.

With additional consideration of the energy dilemmas and environmental constrains, there is a high time, and the time of financial crises when the economic activities slow down, might give a necessary time for reconsideration and consequently more complex development of the possible sustainable future transport sector

Focus on Corridor V





To achieve higher level of inter- or better to say co-modality on the alignment of the Corridor V, where by majority the road transport infrastructure is in place to satisfy the needs when the co-modality is assured, stronger focus on rail transport is essential. Particularly when having in mind all the environmental constrains and the urgent need for rational use of energy.In this line the outcomes of the Strategic study for the Development of Pan-European Corridor 5 completed in May 2007 with particular impacts on Republic of Slovenia and Region of Friuly – Venecia Gulia might be significant

Some Slovenian experiences on impact of investments in transport infrastructure to the national GDP;1. Investments in the Republic of Slovenia has increased for

around 8% annually,2. Without these investments the growth of GDP would be around

1% lower and at that time we had e. g in years from 1994 to 1999 the following GDP growth; 5,3; 4,1; 3,5; 4,6; 3,8; and 4,93. Investments in transport sector resulted in increased employment for 0,7% that present around 4000 new working

places annually,4. Effect of investments on inflation rate was around 0,07%5. Final consumption for this intensive investments was higher for

around 1,25% annually.

12





Future development of the Corridor V extended with all further projects from the Priority Project, ERTMS Corridor to the Rail corridor for competitive freight and finally to the prospective TEN –T Corridor should be focused primarily on rail sector when of particular interest might be also the development of all branches of the original definition of Corridor V.

This map presents the RNE Corridors (where the tools, methods and processes are developed) with indication of the corridors by the Regulation. At least we have indicated that the mayoritiy of corridors are overlaping. So by closer and intensive cooperation we might support the implementation of the corridors by the Regulation.

together with the RNE Joint Office staff

are:Train information

Thank you for your patience

Hoping that the present situation on Corridor V where by road it takes you from Maribor to Budapest 3 hours and 40 minutes, by rails it takes you 6 hours

26 minutes to 8 hours and 59 minutes, will at least for my successor be improved, I would like to
