RAILWAY SYSTEM OF THE FRIULI-VENEZIA GIULIA REGION

IL SISTEMA FERROVIARIO DELLA REGIONE FRUILI-VENEZIA GIULIA

The geographical position of the Friuli-Venezia Giulia Region gives it the function of a "bridge" region between Western and Eastern Europe, as well as between the Mediterranean and Eastern sea routes and the center of the Continent. From this there arises the necessity for a sufficient strengthening of the overland transport infrastructures, both to guarantee the passage of intense movements of persons and to encourage the high flows of freight which in the present decade, might probably double. In this memorandum, consideration is given to the railway network of the Friuli-Venezia Giulia Region in its essential structure, enframing it within the complex of the great European axes. The examination is necessarily extended to the contiguous areas and especially to the Alpine areas facing the northeastern frontier. Thus, presentation is made of a possible proposal of interventions to increase the capacity of the three basic routes on the northern, northeastern and eastern axes, with changes of a planimetric and altimetric nature of varying grade and level, in order to shorten routes and increase speeds.
