Analysis of the causes and solutions proposed to tram transport delays from the transport and construction point of view
Kopecký, Vojtěch ; Svoboda, Richard (referee) ; Valehrach, Jan (advisor)
The thesis Analysis of the causes and solutions proposed to tram transport delays from the transport and construction point of view focuses on the issue of delays and speed drops in tram transport, especially on the causes of their occurrence and ways of their elimination. The thesis examines the current state of the Brno tram system, with a focus on the slowing elements in the system and the locations with frequent delays, including what causes these delays. The thesis also examines the possibilities of speeding up tram transport both from the point of view of transport and from the point of view of track layout. In the final part of the thesis, selected sections of the Brno tram system are analysed in more detail and on the basis of these analyses, measures are proposed that lead to the acceleration of tram transport and the elimination of delays that occur in it.

Design of the High Speed Track between Brno and Znojmo
Repko, Michal ; Velebil, Jiří (referee) ; Valehrach, Jan (advisor)
The aim of this diploma thesis is to design a new track route of high speed line from Brno to Znojmo, specifically between the planned terminal of high speed line Unkovice and existing railway station Hrušovany nad Jevišovkou. The track is designed for a maximum speed of 250 km/h. The alignment and profile of the line were designed, including the design of the railway superstructure and track geometry parameters.

Integration of the tram line into the city structure
Škopková, Klára ; Plášek, Otto (referee) ; Valehrach, Jan (advisor)
Tram transport is an integral part of public transport in many cities. Its lines run through a variety of environments. The integration of tram line into the urban environment – urban structures – is the focus of this thesis. The aim of this thesis is to find out in several Czech and foreign cities how the tramway is integrated in different urban structures. And then, for the analysed cities, to identify and compare their approaches to tramway lines in different urban structures.

Equipment and Technical Design of Public Transport Stops
Ludvíková, Jana ; Ludvík, Matěj (referee) ; Valehrach, Jan (advisor)
This thesis deals with the topic of equipment and technical design of tram stops, which are one of the elements of personal transport in cities. The thesis was expanded about bus and trolleybus transport. A catalog of possible spatial lines of urban public transport, types of stops and their equipment was prepard. Part of this thesis is a questionnaire deailing with property relations and urban public transport stops realization in individual regions of the Czech Republic. Based on this informations, a procedure was developed for how the designer should approach the design of urban public transport stops.

Study of Tram Track Extension to the City District Brno-Bosonohy
Hozáková, Bettina ; Kuchár, Martin (referee) ; Valehrach, Jan (advisor)
This study elaborates four options of the extension of the tram track Brno-Bosonohy, which are subsequently compared according to the impact on the urban structure and the possibility of its adaptation to the street area. The thesis examines the Brno City Zoning Plan and the Bosonohy Zoning Study, its documents are used as a basis of the concept, further defines the terms of the principles of tram track design, and describes the strengths and weaknesses of the elaborated options. The study also covers the design of tram stops and a loop, as well as a potential roundabout with a tram track running through it.

Linear transport structures as a landscape element
Valehrach, Jan ; Svoboda, Richard ; Hubáčková, Dana
Traffic arteries have accompanied man since the dawn of the ages. Roads and railway tracks create lines throughout the landscape. They even left their footprints long after the traffic connection starts to wane or disappears altogether. The landscape is left with the formations that nature eventually takes back, yet still, the spatial orientation of villages indicates its determination by the construction around roads, and the directions of streets still are linked to the roads running out of the towns into the surrounding settlements. Linear structures are generally considered a negative element in the landscape. They divide the landscape, create obstacles and leave a permanent scar. In a similar way, this could be also noted in human perception: railway lines and busy roads are obstacles that divide human settlements or prevent them from developing spatially. On the other hand, these artificial lines are an important landscape feature. Alleys are growing along roads, green belts are appearing in our intensively farmed landscape, often providing the only shelter for animals. Unexpectedly, some oklf today's protected areas have even been created as a result of past intrusions into the landscape. It is therefore important to look at transport structures from multiple angles, to work with their layout and impact on the landscape. The ambition of this article is not to provide the reader with any fundamental or ground-breaking information, but rather to stimulate reflection on both the negative impact of transport structures on the landscape and, in particular, the undeniable positives that are often overlooked when evaluating them.

Study of Tram Track Extension to the Modřice
Kuchár, Martin ; Bret, Ondřej (referee) ; Valehrach, Jan (advisor)
The objective of the master’s thesis is to design an extension of the tram line from the existing Komárov loop to Modřice. Part of the design is the end of the tram line in Modřice, the positioning of new stops and the interconnection to the existing line in Vídeňská street. The extension of the tram line is designed for a maximum speed of 50 km/h with possibility of increase in the future to 80 km/h in selected locations. The lenght of the line is about 6 km.
