  1. Italian high speed lines Development of the italian railway

  2. Modal balance • 92,7% of passengers and 65% of freight are carried by road • Only 5,44% of passengers and 10,74 of freight are carried by train Data taken by National Transport Survey 1999

  3. Most of the traffic is concentrated in few lines • Turin-Venice and Milan-Naples account about 10% of rail network • Carry more than 40% of all passengers • Carry almost 30% of freights Sources FS spa

  4. Relation about the project • As stressed at the Eurailspeed 2002 (Madrid 23 -25 october) by Mauro Moretti, chairman of RFI, the lines involved in the project are the Turin – Milan - Naples and the so called ”rest of the system” • On the new lines there will be both passenger and freight trains as in Germany • The line will improve both the speed and the number of trains: that´s why it is called also high speed/high capacity

  5. The project

  6. Milan - Turin • Length: 125 km (first part of corridor 5 Lisbona - Kiev) • Time: 50 min (105) • Max speed: 300km/h • Cost: 6878 mil euro • Workers: 2850 • Progress: 19% • Turin – Novara ready by 2006 • Novara – Milan ready by 2008 (data updated at January 31)

  30. Cost of a trip between Torin and Naples

  31. Way of financing • Total cost: 28.750 million Euro • 60% of the total cost is given by the government and the EU (Rm–Na, Bo–Fi) • 40% of the cost is risen from the capital market (debt with pubblic guarantee, for instance 2369 ml from BEI, 1033 ml from Merrill Lynch Bank)

  32. Other lines in project • Milan – Venice (pending approval) completely ready by 2011? • Milan – Genoa (pending approval) first part ready by 2010? • Venice – Trieste - Lubiana (in project) • Turin – Lion (in project) • Naples – Palermo (in project)
