Works on a section of railway line

14 September 2020 - Projects update and handover - Lithuania

The joint venture composed of Eurovia Lietuva, Eurovia CS and Ltd GTC is renewing a stretch of the line linking the seaport of Klaipėda to Belarus via Vilnius, one of the busiest in the country.

The project involves installing a temporary line which will subsequently be dismantled and replaced by a road. The transfer of railway traffic onto the temporary line, scheduled for 15 September, will ensure safe working conditions during the works.The teams will also be rebuilding the bridges and culverts and a level crossing, and installing noise barriers, fences and drainage and rainwater collection systems. Once the works have been completed in late 2022, this new section will improve the network’s operational capacity.
