A truck is 13 times more expensive for the tax payerthan a freight train per ton-kilometer
From the COWI report – “Putting value on the external costs of transportation”.Average truck load = 23,2 tonsDKK 0,004

Cost for truck per ton-km is 0,150 DKK
Cost for freight train per ton-km is 0,011 DKK
For each ton-km switched from truck to freight train, the Danish society saves 0,139 DKK6

Increasing the railway share of freight transport will givemajor cost savings to the Danish society
Be like Austria: Increase railway share of freight transport from 13% to 61% in Denmark

..but what are the prerequisites of the railway system inDenmark to bring more freight from road to rail?

We need acompetitive cost structurefor the useof infrastructure (including bridges) compared to:•Other modes of transports and•Other European neighbouring countriesWe need a clear understanding from all relevantparties that each mode of transport should pay the„society costs“ that it createsWe need aholistic approachfor a smartcombination of different modes of transports topromoteintegrated logistic solutions•Short sea, dry ports .•Rail freight = long stretch, truck = last mileWe needan agreed masterplan for futureinvestmentsin the rail system in Denmark to:•Avoid opportunistic patchwork activities•Focus on the „real needs“ of a competitivenetworkWe need to establish a„think tank“to bring allrelevant partners (road, rail, shipping, harbours,government and universities) at one table to „thinkthe unthinkable“Rail

..and what are the prerequisites for a Danish rail freightoperator to be successful in the Danish railway system?

3.
We need anew competitive pricing systemfor theuse of rail infrastructure containing:•Aton-km feethat is not the 100% factor for theprice, but according to EU principles only takingup to 20% into account•Acapacity feeto give the right incentive to allplayers to manage capacity and bottlenecks•Anenvironmental feespread out to all rail freighttrafficsWe need acompetitive cost structureatallterminalsas they are a vital part for intermodality by:•Not allowing unfair and different treatment ofterminal operators•Starting to fund programs for terminals as inAustriaWe need tobe treated re. bridges the same way astrucks,meaning:•No „no show“ feesfor freight trains•Volume related discountsshould also begranted to rail freight operators
