Contents

• What are High Speed Regional Services ?

• Application to Provence – Alpes – Côte d’Azur future high speed line

• Conclusion


What are High Speed Regional Services ?

• Objectives– Improve utilisation of high speed infrastructures

– Offer new high level services between regional cities

• Context– TGV are dedicated to long distance trips (more than 300 km)

– Regional authorities organise suburban services (less than 50 km)

A niche for new high speed services for intermediate distance trips– Same characteristics as regional transport (timetable, fare table, services…)

– Use of high speed line to link cities

– Part of a multi-modal network


Technical characteristics of rolling stock

• “Light” weight: < 17 t axle-load

• High speed: 300-320 km/h

• Power Supply: 1,5 kV-DC, 25kV-AC et 3 kV-DC

• Signalling: aptitude to run on high speed lines

• Small capacity: 200/250 seats

Main Results on Regional Services

• 1,4 millions new trips (yearly) (to compare with 2 to 3 millions new high speed long distance trips)

• 7,6 millions boarding on these new services (about 21 000 trips a day)

Conclusion

• The main objective of the study realized by SYSTRA was to validate the new concept of High Speed Regional Services

• To reach this objective, SYSTRA has developed a specific modelling

• The new services, more comfortable and more rapid will add 50% more trips on the high speed line
