Abstract

The aim of the paper is to select a suitable comparative methodology for assessing the impact of modernization of a specific line section, which is part of the EU international railway corridor, based on the knowledge of methodologies for determining the capacity of railway infrastructure. Some construction measures may have a negative impact on the timetable stability in the future, as well as on the ability to accept new traffic flows from other modes of transport in line with EU transport policy. Subsequently, it is necessary to propose measures for optimal capacity utilization. The section Žilina - Vrútky in Slovakia, which is part of the 5th International Corridor of the TEN-T network, was selected for the case study.
