Became known, when Ukraine may receive the high-speed railway message

All high-speed rail projects in the world have budgets in the tens of billions of dollars.

High-speed rail connections in Ukraine may be launched not earlier than in 10 years.

Comments about this “Apostrophe. Economy,” said experts in the transport market.

“The most optimistic scenario, for example, for the route Kiev-Vinnitsa-Khmelnitsky-Lviv is 10 years. Similarly, for the route Kiev-Poltava-Kharkiv”, – said the former Deputy Minister of infrastructure Oleksandr Kava.

Expert public company “Europetrol” Vyacheslav Konovalov even more pessimistic in their forecasts.

“Even in 15-20 years – it is hard to believe,” said he.

The reason for this, according to experts, is the absence to date of the state’s fiscal capacity to support such projects.

“All high-speed rail projects in the world have budgets in the tens of billions of dollars,” said Alexander Kava, adding that our state is not able to afford.
