URBAN & RAILWAY DEVELOPMENT IN PATRAS 9-16 JUNE 2013 GROUP 4 ANDI BELULAJ PANAGIOTIS AIVALIS FANI DIMOPOULOU BETTINA RIEDMANN JUDITH SCHÖBI KARIN WIDLER
overview

Athens
suburban train in Patras: successful
high speed line Athens - Patras?
?
high-speed line ends in the old port (1)
Code Patras leads through the existing corridor to the old port + city centre and bus terminal are nearby + port and rail can be combined – conflicts with the surburban train – consequences for the urban fabric / divides the city due to design of high speed – possible cargo port activities near the centre and marina
high-speed line ends in the old port (2)
Code Patras leads through through a bypass tunnel to the old port + city centre and bus terminal are nearby + port and rail can be combined – possible cargo port activities near the centre and marina – feasibility? – high costs!
high-speed line ends in the new port (1)
Code Patras leads through the existing corridor to the new port + all port activities concentrated + brownfields: potential for city and central station development – negative consequences for the urban fabric / divides the city and divides city from the sea – corridor splits the city center – conflicts with the surburban train
high-speed line ends in the new port (2)
Code Patras leads through a by-pass tunnel
to the new port + all port activities concentrated
+ brownfields: potential for city development + suburban train fits perfect to it
– long tunnel needed due to the slopes! – feasability? high costs!
Patras – Athens ends with metric gauge and an interchange node normal gauge, double track normal gauge, single track
small gauge
Rio Rododafni
Diakopto
Interchange node for passengers on the outskirt of Patras, possibilities are in Rio, Rododafni or Diakopto
suggested railway standards one track metric gauge,
one track line
double track corridor
futurally electrified
Normal speed
1 track fully equipped high speed
second path reserved
second path reserved
high speed
double track fully equipped

Patras: metropolitan line
improvement of suburban to a metropolitan line new stations connections to busses connection between metropolitan railway and normal gauge has to be assured
development of metropolitan line
Suburban line (train)
New Stop
Inner city line (tram)
Existing stop Concept of service Suburban line (train) Inner city line (tram)
Future connections every hour, synchronised with Intercity to/from Athens every 15’, connected to blue line in Bozaitika and new Port
Patra, New Port: 5 trains stop per hour and direction
a vision for the metropolitan line
interchange for passengers
existing lines and plannings OSE

planned costs
suggested
difference in %
Kiato - Rododafni
920 mio. €
ca. 750 mio. €
- ca. 25% less maintenance 1 track equipped
Rododafni – Rio normal gauge
500 mio. €
ca. 250 mio. €
- ca. 50% just one track build
Rio - Patras
< 1 billion € (inkl. underground)
electrification of metric gauge ca 10 mio. €
- ca. 99%
metropolitan line (more stops and services)
-
electrical trains 3 trains 9 mio. €
the next steps initiate the study of suggested alternatives: like implementation of a planning process for the questions: where to build the interchange node? plan Rododafni – Rio and Rio – Patras integral and divide it in onward-compatible, realistic projects
