Tunnels, as specific types of transport structures, place high demands on pavement construction. When selecting the pavement type, two main construction types are often compared: asphalt concrete and cement concrete. Both have their advantages and disadvantages, which must always be considered in light of the boundary conditions. The choice between asphalt and concrete pavement should be based on the specific project requirements, climatic conditions, traffic load, planned service life, maintenance and repair opti...

Repairs of cement concrete pavements are among the most demanding technological operations in road construction and therefore require increased attention. Repairs of less damaged cement concrete pavements are usually made using plastic mortars, epoxy and polyester resins or special materials. The economics of the repair, or the strengthening of damaged cement concrete pavements, is tied to the technical and technological problems of interaction with asphalt layers. Thin reinforced cement concrete slab is a method ...

In 2011, it was decided that the carrying public transport system in Bratislava would be tram transport. Today's transport system is based on radials, it was created as part of Bratislava's first comprehensive transport concept in the ?70s. One of the disadvantages of Bratislava's public transport system is the few tram lines in the city centre, which, with a large number of radials, causes vehicles from different radials to cluster together at dense and poorly spaced intervals. The disadvantage of the radial syst...

The creation of public spaces is currently quite conditioned by the impact of the idea of sustainable mobility and efforts to improve the environment in urban spaces. On the one hand, there are ideas and thoughts for improving public spaces, on the other hand, outdated legislation prevents these ideas from being sufficiently implemented. One of the most important elements for changing the division of transport work in urban conditions and thus improving the perception and appearance of public spaces is to increase...

Several types of transport integrates transit nodes. Transit nodes are located in built-up areas, inside cities or on the outskirts of cities, urban agglomerations. Transit nodes are an important part of public passenger transport. The article is about transit nodes on the regional railway line between Bratislava and Dunajska Streda. The transit nodes are the railway stations on this line. Intercepting parking lots are part of the transit nodes outside large cities. It is important to compare travel times from sou...
