YOUR FUTURE ENVIRONMENT
Eiffage, Budimex and Rizzani de Eccher, in a consortium, are carrying out the civil engineering and track-laying work on the 230-kilometre Latvian section of the new Rail Baltica high-speed rail line.
The contract includes
175 engineering structures
11 wildlife crossings
The aim of this line is to integrate the Baltic States into the European rail network by creating a link between Helsinki (Finland) and Warsaw (Poland). The cross-border rail link will further the development of a single European market by facilitating trade through interoperability between the various transport networks (land, river and air). It will also help to increase the share of the most environmentally friendly modes of transport.
The section won by ERB Rail is designed for a speed of 249 km/h for passenger trains and 120 km/h for freight trains.
