Paths of Ukraine-EU solidarity – Integration of the railway system of Ukraine into the EU transport system

Different track standards in Ukraine and the EU are the reason for the low carrying capacity of passengers and cargo in international traffic. At the moment, a partial transition to the track width of the European standard, where in some areas combined tracks of two standards 1520 mm (Ukrainian) and 1435 mm (European) will be built, and in some single-track sections of the track - European, will allow to increase the throughput and profitability of freight transportation by rail.
