• PROSPECTS FOR THE CZECH<br />
RAILWAY INDUSTRY<br />
The <strong>Czech</strong> railway industry has tremendous<br />
potential. Investment in this sector<br />
will have a multiple effect on domestic<br />
economic development. Specifically, it<br />
will have a favourable impact on employment,<br />
will improve the quality of transport<br />
services and lead to a higher culture of<br />
travel, while also raising the export performance<br />
of enterprises. In general, <strong>Czech</strong><br />
railways will require considerable investments<br />
in the next few years to attain the<br />
desired standards. In particular, this means<br />
investment in the development of the<br />
railway infrastructure, in addition to the<br />
completion of the railway corridors and the<br />
modernisation of key railway junctions. We<br />
must also not forget about regional railway<br />
lines. To be competitive, we must fit<br />
the main corridors with the ERTMS/ETCS<br />
European train control system, modernise<br />
freight corridors passing through the<br />
<strong>Czech</strong> Republic, harmonise the costs of all<br />
types of transport, invest in the modernisation<br />
and purchase of new carriages and,<br />
last but not least, start preparations for<br />
the construction of high-speed lines that<br />
will make the conventional lines available<br />
for freight transport.<br />
