Problematika evropské silniční a železniční sítě v kontextu společné dopravní politiky EU

Separately allocated Trans-European transport networks are now one of the most important areas for future development of the EU in the context of the revised Lisbon strategy. The aim of this thesis is to analyze the status and future development, financing of road and rail networks in the context of the EU Common Transport Policy, which was deliberately chosen as the dominant model in many segments of the promising modes of transport on which cultivation is in the main focus of Community legislative measures. The text is divided into three chapters, with the first part of the issue devoted to the presentation of the current state of road and rail networks (including high-speed rail lines), economic evaluation of effectiveness. The second chapter deals with the European transport policy context within which the infrastructure development is taking place. The analysis consists of road and rail market reforms, accesibility, network access, progress in liberalization, selected measures, taken and planned secondary legislation in the last three years and its implications for member states. The third part is devoted to European international systems of road and rail infrastructure, TEN-T and their current and future funding then mainly by direct methods from the TEN-T budget, the participation of member states, structural sources such as the Cohesion Fund and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF ) etc. The main part of this chapter means searching for innovative financial instruments, which so far have not been used to such an extent, but the design of the next financial perspective for the years 2014-2020 counts them as the most important elements for the development of sustainable infrastructure.
