Sustainable Track Strategies
Life Cycle Cost of Track SuperstructureThe aim of any track strategy is to reduce total costs of superstructure.
Knowing the cost distribution assumptions can be made:
Depreciation is the dominating cost fraction (re-investment cost/service life)
50-80%Costs of Operational Hindrances (COH) can be quite high
up to 30%Maintenance costs reach some 25% in maximummax 25%
All these cost proportions have interactions and therefore cannot be treaded separately!

Sustainable Track Strategies
Investment StrategiesDepreciation is calculated as
(Re-)Investment costsService life
Reducing investment costs leads to lower initial quality followed by…either reduced service life – and thus a counterproductive effect keeping depreciation at least at the same level.…or to increasing maintenance costs (and COH) resulting in higher total costs.
Depreciation can only be reduced in increasing service life, even in increasing the investment costs!

Sustainable Track Strategies
Maintenance StrategiesReducing maintenance (costs) is dangerous!
Only adequate maintenance ensures that high initial quality is transposed to a long service life.
Most important maintenance job:Drainage cleaning

Sustainable Track Strategies
Availability StrategiesCosts of operational hindrances are kept low, if
works are executed as fast as possible (not reducing quality!)track can be operated without speed restrictions directly after the work (e.g. stabilising)failures are kept low
And if maintenance demands are low, of course!

Sustainable Track Strategies
Sustainable Track Strategies…… are high quality strategies!… reduce all cost proportions at the same time.… have to be followed consistently.
Further aspects:Quality monitoring (recording cars)Prognosis and planning of maintenance and re-investment demandsInventing of new technologies in order to covering increasing loadsInsuring good vehicle quality (construction and maintenance)
