Sažetak
Significant and generally well-known advantages of railways compared to other transport branches, considered in the framework of the traffic development of Croatia and the wider environment, put an emphasis on the significance of high-quality railway connections in the Pan-European VB corridor. In order to raise the quality of the traffic services on this railway route to the level that is required by the contemporary European criteria, it needs to be modernized. This would at the same time contribute to the integration into the overall European traffic system. The paper presents the possibilities of improving the mentioned railway connecting of the Adriatic coast with other parts of Croatia and Europe. Special significance belongs to the Rijeka-Zagreb-Botovo (Hungary) railway line. Significant improvement of the railway traffic in this area would be achieved by constructing a new railway line from Rijeka to Trieste, which is the logical extension of the Pan-European VB corridor. The construction of a railway line in the Adriatic-Ionian corridor along the Adriatic coast from Trieste to Dubrovnik and further towards the border would contribute to better connecting of all the regions, cities and ports which it would pass through and it would have a positive impact on the overall economic development of the Republic of Croatia. Regarding the interests and requirements of the international traffic, the Adriatic railway line would present the shortest way of connecting the North-west Europe with the South of Europe and the Near East. The level of service quality expected on the new line would contribute to greater attraction of cargo and passengers to the tourist, port and other capacities in Croatia.
