Návrh nového modelu poskytování slevy za dopravní cestu jednotlivým vozovým zásilkám na síti Správy Železnic v rámci produktového faktoru P3

This thesis deals with the analysis of rail freight transport, specifically single wagon transport. In this context, the cost structure of rail and road carriers is compared on selected business cases provided in cooperation by DB Cargo Czechia s.r.o. The aim is to propose a new model of providing a discount for a SWT journey on the network of the Railway Administration, which will better meet the needs of railway carriers and thus support railway transport. The theoretical part deals with the comparison of road and rail transport primarily in terms of infrastructure costs. Furthermore, the model of rail discounting in Austria is characterised, which is then used to analyse the hypothesis. The practical part deals with the aforementioned business case analysis, the determination of critical points within the current model and the related design of a new model. The thesis concludes by evaluating the research question and proving or disproving the hypothesis, followed by an overall summary of the issues under investigation within the rail transport.
