Koralm Railway
The Koralm railway ((ドイツ語:Koralmbahn)) is a 127 km-long〔Johannes Fleckl-Ernst: ''Geodätische Herausforderungen beim Projekt „Koralmtunnel“''. In: ''Felsbau'', Heft 5/2010, S. 315–321, .〕 double-track, electrified, high-speed railway that is under construction, and which will connect the Austrian cities of Graz and Klagenfurt. Construction started in 2001, and the entire railway line is expected to be operational by 2023.
== Overview ==
Although construction will not finish until 2023, parts of the railway line are already open, or will be opened earlier, to enhance the quality of local commuter rail services. The railway is primarily built for intermodal freight transport but will also be used by passenger trains travelling at up to 250 km/h. The travel time from Klagenfurt to Graz will be reduced from three hours to one hour. Commissioning of the first new track section began in 2010 and construction is expected to be completed in 2022.
The centrepiece of the new railway is the 33 km Koralm Tunnel under the Koralpe mountains that give the railway its name. The project is currently the largest under way to expand the Austrian railway network with a budget of several billion euros, and will connect the federal state capitals of the adjacent states of Styria and Carinthia. The connection is currently made by a laborious three hour train journey via Bruck an der Mur.〔 In combination with the projected 27 km-long ''Semmering base tunnel'' the Koralmbahn will remove bottlenecks in the Austrian freight and passenger railway infrastructure (namely the Semmering Pass and the Neumarkt Sattel). Together with the already existing Italian ''Pontebbana railway line'' between Tarvisio and Udine they will be part of what is referred to as Baltic-Adriatic Corridor - a traffic axis connecting the Polish port city of Gdańsk and the Italian city of Bologna. In 2013 the Koralmbahn was included into the Trans-European Transport Core Network.
