Hupac has explained that the slid autumn the increase is collapsed as a result of the new conjunctural recession.

In entire the 2011 Hupac it has recorded the greater rate of growth in the transalpine traffic through Austria (+24.0%). A factor of substantial success - it has found the society - has been in such sense the shape of the axis of the Brenner that allows to transport the modern semitowings of great dimensions with a lateral height of four meters. Also the not transalpine traffic, in which they re-enter guiding Benelux-Austria/Hungary/Rumania, Benelux-Poland/Russia and Belgium-France/Spain, has contributed to the positive result with an increase of 12.6%.

With respect to the development of the infrastructural net, receiving with favor the pragmatic and realistic approach of the relationship on the transfer of traffic 2011 of the Helvetic federal Office of the transports and emphasizing to expect that found how much with regard to the transfer of the traffic comes quickly put in existence with concrete provisions, Hupac has but evidenced own worry because the traffic line Bellinzona-Luino-Novara goods, on which 80% of the transport arranged not accompanied via Gottardo circulate, "comes more and more marginalized in international the infrastructural strategies. The urgent introduction measures of potenziamento of this line, than they would make some to increase the productivity without to demand excessive investments, as for example the extension of the overtaking railroads - it has emphasized Hupac - goes on for a long time. On the contrary - it has observed the company - for the construction of the corridor of four meters the priority to the axis via Uproar is given, without to consider the fact that the current great terminals of Novara and Busto Arsizio-Gallarate are not approachable through this director". "So - the director of Hupac has commented, Bernhard Kunz - the value of the investments completed in last the twenty years is belittled on the axis of Luino".

It is necessary to give the priority to the corridor of four meters on the axis of Luino for the current offer of traffic and, in the second place, to the axis of Uproar for the future traffics".
