Abstract:
By analyzing the transport connections between Olomouc city and the villages situated in the region and along the line of the local railways, the offer of railway and regional bus connections, their frequency and journey time was compared.
For the railway services the flows of passengers between Olomouc and the region were evaluated for each route. On the basis of the strength of passenger flow, condition of track and possibility of passengers increasing in the future the route for application of the Tram – Train concept was chosen.
On this designated route the form of Tram–Train concept was found to have low financial and time expenditure for infrastructure construction. On the basis of an evaluation of the costs and the sustainability of the proposal within European Union guidelines, the realisation of a Tram-Train project appears justified.
