The journey from Prague to České Budějovice will be faster by 25 minutes thanks to new tunnels

The highest amount of investments into transport infrastructure ever, adoption of a so-called Linear Act, launch of a PPP project on D4 motorway or introduction of an electronic vignette and a single tariff system on the Czech railway. These events will represent the year 2021 in transport. This time, new projects aim to speed up improvement of roads, make Ministry’s agenda digital and strengthen the role of passenger transport on the Czech railway.

Správa železnic (the national railway infrastructure manager) is working on increasing safety of level crossings. Last year, a total of 155 level crossings were rebuilt for more than CZK 1.5 billion. This year, it plans to rebuilt another 200 level crossings for approx. CZK 2 billion, which is more than previously planned.
