Dans une société où la congestion automobile est un problème de plus en plus important et où les distances des déplacements domicile-travail est en constante augmentation, le train se présente comme une alternative intéressante. Le nombre d’utilisateurs des chemins de fer augmente de plus en plus en Belgique et sa part modale dans les mouvements pendulaires est en légère augmentation. Mais cette évolution n’est pas uniforme. La Wallonie est un peu à la traine par rapport aux deux autres régions belges, Bruxelles et la Flandre. L’objectif de ce mémoire est de comprendre les facteurs influençant les fréquentations des gares en Belgique et leurs évolutions entre 1994 et 2014. Les fréquentations et leurs évolutions seront décrites sur la base du nombre de montées par jour de semaine. Plusieurs facteurs seront testés pour expliquer les évolutions de fréquentations, comme les tailles des gares, l’évolution de la population et l’influence des pôles urbains majeurs. L’importance des mouvements pendulaires dans ces fréquentations seront mis en évidence, notamment grâce à la création d’un indice d’attractivité du ferroviaire. Les principaux résultats mettront en évidence le rôle primordial de Bruxelles dans la demande en transport ferroviaire ainsi que l’influence des plus grandes gares du pays sur la fréquentation des gares alentours. In a society in which traffic congestion is an increasing problem and in which the commuting distances are constantly on the rise, the train appears to be an interesting alternative. The number of railroad users increases incrementally in Belgium and its commuting modal share grows progressively. But this evolution is not homogeneous. Wallonia is trailing behind Brussels and Flanders. The aim of this study is to understand which parameters have an impact on the number of train passengers in Belgium and its evolution between 1994 and 2014. The latter will be described based on the number of boardings per week day. Several parameters will be tested in an attempt to explain the evolution of railroad users, such as station sizes, demographic evolution and major urban clusters. The weight of commuting in train boardings will be underlined, namely through the creation of a railway attractiveness index. The main results will highlight the essential role of Brussels in the railway passenger demand as well as the influence of the biggest train stations on the regular use of neighbouring stations.

TECforLime is a new company created in 2018. TECforLime is dealing with international projects, for which the company has to transport equipment, metallic structures and refractory materials. These goods are purchased from suppliers, based mainly in Europe and Asia, and have to be transported until customer’s location. Indeed, TECforLime is dealing with 3 current projets, in Kazakhstan, Senegal and Bulgaria. As the company focuses on its core business and is beginner in terms of logistics, TECforLime has outsourced its logistics tasks to external companies. However, TFL has questions about this logistics and would like to be more aware about “How to optimize the logistic system of its projets ?”.
This project thesis has been developed in order to answer that questions and to support TECforLime’s needs. TECforLime, despite its growing activities, had difficulties gathering all the data needed to efficiently carry out its logistics. For this reason, a work has been done in this project thesis in order to have a better visualization of the whole logistics involved, especially for the Kazakhstan project.
After that, a study has been carried out about the booming Eurasian railway network. Indeed, TECforLime had questions about it. The Eurasian railway network has experienced a huge development after the start of the Belt & Road Initiative. For this reason, a literature review has been completed about this Initiative launched by the Chinese President Xi Jinping.
Then, an investigation from logistics experts has been carried out, in order to have practical data about that Eurasian railway network, and how it could fit with the TECforLime’s projects.
After this investigation, further analyses have been done. First, a comparison between the efficiency of the Eurasian railway network and the one of the sea transportation between Asia and Europe, based on criteria’s like price, speed, frequency, reliability, environmental impact, … Then, a SWOT analysis highlighting the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the Eurasian railway network from a TECforLime’s point of view.
Finally, some recommendations have been done in order to enable the company to choose the right logistics strategy in the future.
