Abstract: From January 1, 2003 Czech Railways state organisation was transformed to companies according the Act No. 77/2002 Coll. - to Czech Railways joint stock company and the Railway Infrastructure Administration, state organisation. The Rail Safety Authority as a new organisation was also established. The access of rail operators to the railway infrastructure in a neutral and non-discriminatory manner is treated by the Act on Railways from 1994. The Czech Railways joint-stock company pays for the use of the railway infrastructure to the Railway Infrastructure Administration (like any other rail undertakings). Czech Railways joint stock company (the state is 100% shareholder) as an integrated rail undertaking ensures operating of railway transport on the railway infrastructure owned by the state as well as management of the railway infrastructure owned by the state. The Railway Infrastructure Administration state organisation is a body representing the state as the owner of railway infrastructure. The depreciation allowance for the railway infrastructure is not charged. The paper shows new positions and mutual relations between new companies and financial as well as technical rules for modernisation, development and maintenance of the railway infrastructure.
