Contends • Market development • Terminal Network • Network improvement • Operation • Innovation
Rail Cargo Austria as a Terminal Operator • Facts and Figures: • 8 Terminals (public access) • National and international Co-operation (network) • 185 employees • 325.000 loading units in/out (UKV 09‘) • 471.000 ROLA-trucks in/out (ROLA 09‘) • Services: • Handling, Storage und Ct-Depot (not all Terminals) • Operation of ROLA-Terminals • Additional Services, Agency-Services • Costums services, Trucking (via internal organisation)
Market trends in Austria Maritime traffic • Main volumes to North Sea ports and Rotterdam, increased importance of Mediterranean Ports. • High Modal-Split on rail (more than 80%) in Hinterland-traffic from and to Austria. Continental traffic • Significant market potential based on new rail product concepts, improved infrastructure and legal framework. • New markets in south east Europe. • Market extension leads to capacity and quality bottlenecks (national and international).
