Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan 2003

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan 2003 ( BVWP 2003 ) is the predecessor of the currently valid Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan 2030 in Germany. For the period from 2001 to 2015, it comprises a financial volume of around 150 billion euros for the three modes of transport rail , road and waterway . Its forerunner was the Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan 1992 ; the following Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan 2030 should be Template: future / in 5 yearsvalid until 2030 .

history

On July 2, 2003, the Federal Cabinet passed the Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan 2003, the project lists of which formed the basis for

  • the first law amending the Federal Railways Expansion Act (entered into force on September 22, 2004) and
  • the fifth law amending the law on highway expansion (entered into force on October 16, 2004)

with the requirement plans for the federal railways and for the federal highways contained as an annex .

The BVWP 2003 planning for rail transport was based on federal funds of 4.2 billion euros per year. According to the budget lines approved by the federal government in spring 2004, investment funds were reduced to 3.5 billion euros. According to this plan, around 800 million euros less investment than budgeted were planned for each of the following years. In addition to maintenance costs of 2.5 billion euros per year, around one billion euros in investment funds remain.

The Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Development reports annually to the German Bundestag in the transport investment report on the progress of the rail and road projects described in the two laws.

The requirement plans for federal railways and federal highways were reviewed in accordance with the statutory mandate five years after they came into force in 2004; the results were published on November 11, 2010.

methodology

The cost-benefit analysis of the Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan 2003 was based on the following evaluation components: transport costs , maintenance of the transport routes, traffic safety, accessibility, spatial effects, environmental effects, induced traffic, connection to seaports and airports as well as investment costs .

Compared to the Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan 1992, the importance of the components of the environment, spatial planning and urban development has been increased and for the first time interdependence effects of the projects under consideration have been included. The non- monetary assessment procedures have also been expanded: An environmental risk assessment (URE), which qualitatively takes into account factors not shown in the cost-benefit analysis, was carried out for the first time for almost all the projects considered.

In addition, the instrument of spatial effectiveness analysis (RWA) was newly introduced. Among other things, it takes into account the extent to which a project improves spatial development and helps to connect central locations . The results of URE and RWA were assigned to each project on a scale from 1 to 5 and linked to the results of the benefit-cost analysis.

Expansion laws

Due to the amendment of the Federal Railways Expansion Act and the Long-Distance Road Expansion Act, the requirement plans, which were drawn up on the basis of the BVWP 2003, became legally binding. Most recently, a review of any necessary adjustments to the requirement plans to the current economic and traffic development took place in 2010.

financing

The last investment master plan approved for the FTIP 2003 was valid for the period 2011 to 2015 and had a financial volume of 50 billion euros. The project volume for expansion and new construction measures amounted to 41.5 billion euros. The previous one on the investment master plan was for the period from 2006 to 2010.

For the implementation of the rail transport projects, the federal government concluded a framework agreement with Deutsche Bahn in 1999, which regulates subsidies and their control. This was replaced in 2017 by the requirement plan implementation agreement.
