The topics were: (1) railway market opening for cargo services; (2) loss-making long-distance passenger services; (3) selected Cargo business issues; (4) debt management; and (5) infrastructure asset management and prioritization of investment. Asset management strategy and life-cycle costing in the renewal and reconstruction of UZ’s railway infrastructure network. This summary note is organized with the market opening as the anchor for catalyzing and achieving the modernization of UZ and putting it in a strong position to compete with other railways once the market is opened. And while many of the regulatory and institutional actions will depend on the pending railway law, UZ and MoI can continue and in some cases start preparations to be ready once the law is passed. 2019-08-16T19:33:29Z 2019-08-16T19:33:29Z 2019-06-25 Policy Note http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/544101563254171799/Summary-Report-Using-Market-Opening-to-Catalyze-Railway-Reforms http://hdl.handle.net/10986/32284 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work :: Policy Note Economic & Sector Work Europe and Central Asia Ukraine
