Summary
This paper presents strategy implemented for the design of the ERTMS system on a section of railway line around the city of Nis in Serbia. An approach applied in the absence of a national ERTMS implementation strategy, national ERTMS Operational Rules and national ERTMS values was used. Technical requirements for the partial implementation of the ERTMS system were therefore the result of several activities: experience with the implementation of the ERTMS system in the framework of the European TEN-T corridor railway lines, consultation about the solution of specific technical problems associated with the EEIG ERTMS Users Group and with several suppliers of equipment. It was shown that even in such an unregulated environment it is technically and economically justified to implement the ERTMS system on just one section of the railway line.
