Operation of this line was canceled after widening the EU due to removal of toll-gates. During its ten years existence, RO-LA received substantial operation and capital subsidies both from Czech and Saxony governments. The expected benefit was to be decreased burden of heavy freight traffic on cross-border roads. However, Czech ministry of transport did not provide any justification of its intervention in terms of cost-benefit analysis. The benefits of decreased air pollution due to the operation of RO-LA line were calculated. It appears that the benefit/cost ratio of state subsidies was very low. Furthermore, only a small proportion of heavy trucks used the combined transport, and thus the benefits are questionable. Break-even point was calculated, when the accompanied combined transport would be competitive with road freihght transport. There would have to be introduced a road charge. ER -
