Abstract
Tram-train is a type of light rail vehicle that meets the standards of a light rail system, usually a city tram, but that also meets national mainline standards, which allow it to operate alongside mainline trains. A tram-train can be a viable solution as it can integrate features of rail and tram systems using specially adapted light rail vehicles. When the tram-train system as a public transport concept enabling the combined development of transport on both light rail and heavy rail infrastructure use railway infrastructure, compliance with all essential requirements should be ensured, as well as compliance with the expected level of safety on the relevant lines using two different networks and mixing heavy rail and tram operations increase complexity and often require compromise solutions. The procedure, based on risk analysis, compliance check, and approval of the tram-train system, is presented in this paper. Transit networks based on the light rail can be a good option that aims to reduce the negative effects of individual mobility following the principles of sustainability.
