An intersection of European Railway Corridors is present in our country by geographical meanings, conducting to a need of developing infrastructure and connecting it to the European Corridors. The railway link between the Romanian Regions is developing and has just a few sections that need to be made in order to have the entire IV th Pan European Railway Corridor from Romania rehabilitated. The Central Developing Region from Romania contains the railway section between Brasov and Sighisoara cities that is rehabilitated for the maxim design speed for passenger trains of 160 km/h and 120km/h for freight trains. The maximum design speed imposes new curves with bigger radius resulting in new routes along the section. The actual and proposed route of double track railway section between Brasov and Sighisoara is analysed and the rehabilitation works along with it. The tunnels cross section and possible difficulties in realising and execution of them are presented and analysed. Conclusions regarding the proposed art works and future problems that can be solved in this stage – preparation stage that can assure better and safe construction and exploitation of the railway are made in final.
