The railway of Ipoly valley was built 100 years ago and it satisfied the transportation demands of the region across the border as well. In 1963 the Drégelypalánk-Hont railway line was deconstructed and traffic on the Ipolytarnóc-Losonc line has recently been suspended. Demand for public transport of goods and passengers gives reason for renewal of the cross-border rail transport thus a regional railway network will be created adjusted to the demands. The feasibility study intends to examine and outline the possibility of this. Achievements: The demand for the public transportation of goods and passengers provided the rationale for renewing the cross-border rail transport between Hont and Ipolytarnóc. The aim of the project was to elaborate a feasibility study that explores and presents the need for rail transport services, provides proposals for the development of technical infrastructure and possible solutions for a more economic operation. The specific objective of the project was to strengthen the economic competitiveness of the border area by improving accessibility.
