1 High Speed Rail an overview Oliver Sellnick Director Railway Undertakings Łódź, 29 March 2006

2 Agenda Introduction to UIC Worldwide overview HS evolution in Europe Traffics and market share High Speed and sustainable mobility Safety Financing projects

3 UIC membership base in 2006: 170 members on 5 continents Active: 73 Associate: 60 Affiliate:3 7

4 170 members on all 5 continents 73 active members: railways, railway infrastructure managers, railway operators, from Europe, the Maghreb, the Middle East, Kazakhstan, India, Pakistan, Japan, China, Korea, South Africa; 60 associate members, including railways in Asia, Africa, America, Australia; 37 affiliate members: companies conducting activities connected with rail transport (public transport, sleeping cars, caterers, shipping lines,...).

5 Core aspects of the UIC identity The «New» Global association Center of competence Creating added value for members by improving railway operations and services

6 UIC Mission and objectives Mission : At world level UIC shall promote rail transport in order to meet the challenges of mobility and sustainable development Main UIC objectives: Facilitate exchange on best practises among members (benchmarking), Propose new ways for improving economic performances of the railways, Support members in their efforts to develop new businesses, Achieve interoperability, create new world standards for railways (including common standards with other modes), Develop Centers of excellence (technology, management, training,..).

7 Selected UIC key issues Railway noise reduction ERIM: European Railway Infrastructure Masterplan ERTMS Platform: facilitation of ETCS and GSM-R migration and further developments Coordinating safety policies of members Innotrack (developing a new innovative infrastructure) Support groups for European Railway Agency (ERA) activities SEDP TAF TSI (deployment plan for freight telematics) MERITS / PRIFIS (European passenger information system)

11 HS evolution in Europe

12 In the last 25 years, over km of HS lines have been built Km Evolution of HS Lines in Europe

13 The customer response has been very positive with traffic raising stronger than new construction Km of new HSL Passenger. Km x 2,6 x 1,7

17 Traffic and market share

18 Traffic growth of new HS lines is fed by two sources Modal shift HS growth New traffic

19 Modal split Paris - Brussels (310 km) all modes Coach Plane Car Train Before Thalys After Thalys

20 Modal split Madrid - Seville (471 km) Plane Train 33 Before AVE After AVE

21 100 Curve of the rail / air modal split (distances between 300 and 600 km) Rail market share (%) Paris - Brussels 310 km Paris - Lyons 430 km Madrid - Seville 471 km Rome - Bologna 358 km Tokyo - Osaka 515 km % Plane Paris - London 494 km Stockholm - Gotenburg 455 km Paris - Amsterdam 540 km Rome - Milan 560 km 25 % HS Rail travel time (hours)

22 Thresholds HS is optimal in less than 3 hours travel The minimum level of traffic to justify an new HS line (300 km/h) is usually 5 Million passengers 1 h 2 h 3 h 4 h 5 h Maximum efficiency business travel

23 High Speed and sustainable mobility

24 HS environmentally friendlier than other modes Primary Energy and CO2 Emission from transport Primary energy in litres of petrol per 100 passengers-km Amount of carbon dioxid emissions per 100 passengers-km HS Trains Private cars Plane

25 Safety

26 ZERO killed in HS accidents (V > 200 km/h) after 42 years of HS train operation Passengers killed in accident per billion passenger-km 2,5 2,33 2 1,87 1,99 1,5 1 0, ,54 1,63 1,50 1,43 1,29 1,09 1,11 1,39 1,00 1,18 0,98 0, ,24 1,10 0,65 0,69 High Speed ,79 0,65 0,92 Classic Railway 0,56 0,47 0,40 0,38 0,51 0,36 0, ,42 0,30 0,22 0,

27 Financing HS projects

28 HS requires high investments HS needs very detailed studies on traffic forecasting, costs and benefits It is necessary to consider all consequences (social aspects, etc.) Always public funding
