Feasibility study, Helsingborg–Blekinge

The current Helsingborg - Blekinge feasibility study is part of a sub-project in the EUfinanced East West Transport Corridor II project (EWTCII). The feasibility study is one of two sub-reports for task 4G - Helsingborg-Blekinge Railway Improvement. The objective of the study is to identify and analyse implementable alternative solutions to be able to run one freight train per hour and in either direction or one freight train every two hours and in either direction on both of the lines. The feasibility study also shows Skånebanan’s connection to Södra Stambanan and the capacity at the Hässleholm, Åstorp and Ramlösa junctions. The feasibility study performs a general analysis of the possibility of operating freight trains on the whole of the Helsingborg - Karlskrona section. The lines that are primarily affected in the analysis are Skånebanan between Helsingborg and Kristianstad and the Blekinge kustbana between Kristianstad and Karlskrona.
