Reducing High-Speed Rail Costs by Combined Double-Single Tracks
2.2.3 Railway line optimization
In order to define an ADST solution, it is necessary to divide the line in different segments with
similar characteristics, see Figure 13. Thus, the 213-km line is divided into fourteen segments
with an average cost of 4.6 M€/km and 7.4 M€/Km in single- and double-track respectively, as
shown in Figure 13 and Table 6.

lengths and costs in single and double track.
