Unfinished backbone transport network Sample Clauses

Unfinished backbone transport network. One fundamental problem with the transportation in the Czech Republic is the incomplete backbone rail and road network, both within the country (formed by links between major metropolitan areas within the Czech Republic, and links between regional cities and other major settlements, and especially their connections to the main centres of the country, i.e. Prague or Brno), as well as cross-border connections linking the Czech Republic and Europe. This backbone network, consisting mostly of the TEN-T and some other links, is represented by upgraded or to-be-upgraded rail corridors and some planned new railway sections with speed limits up to 160 km/h (or 200 km/h in the future), the planned high-speed lines for the speed limits of 200 km/h and higher, existing or planned motorways and expressways and selected existing class I roads. Concerning the above-mentioned four transit railway corridors, approx. 75% of their length have been modernised so far. In respect of the railway TEN-T including also the planned construction of high-speed tracks up to 2050, 38% of the total planned extent has been modernised, out of the conventional tracks, 47% has been modernised on the TEN-T. Out of the total planned network of motorways and expressways (backbone network) with length of approx. 2,200 km, only slightly more than 50% has been completed so far. From the viewpoint of the road TEN-T, only less than 50% of the network has been constructed or modernised. Inland water transport is highly environmentally friendly, it features high capacity transport route and efficiency during stable navigation conditions; its importance for ensuring multimodality cannot be disputed. The Czech Republic cannot adequately use the potential of existing waterways (the Labe - Vltava rivers waterway about 315 km long) due to unsatisfactory navigation conditions on a short, but absolutely crucial section of the Labe near the border with Germany, which conditions the use of the whole remaining part of the network. The existing core infrastructure faces unsatisfactory technical conditions in some parts which must be immediately addressed in several cases. The unsatisfactory technical conditions are mostly caused by long-term low investment into maintenance and repairs. Development needs:  Construction and modernisation of railway lines (including the main railway junctions) of the backbone network with an emphasis on the TEN-T network (main and global). From a regional perspective, emphasis sh...
