Rail Baltica will be participating in InnoTrans 2024, the world’s leading transport and infrastructure exhibition, taking place from September 24-27 in Berlin, Germany.
The Rail Baltica global project team, representing RB Rail (the central coordinator), along with Rail Baltic Estonia, Eiropas Dzelzceļa līnijas (Latvia), LTG Infra (Lithuania), and relevant ministries, will share insights into the latest developments in the Rail Baltica project. This will include updates on construction progress, upcoming partner engagement opportunities, and advancements in railway subsystems such as electrification, control-command, and signaling.
The team will also discuss the project’s digitalization efforts and provide additional information on specific global and country-based updates, as well as market engagement strategies.
“Participating in InnoTrans provides us with a valuable opportunity to engage with current and potential partners, suppliers, and peer projects from around the globe. Rail Baltica is at a pivotal stage, with critical decisions being made that will shape the project’s future trajectory. A key focus is also on securing funding, including attracting private investment. It is encouraging that Rail Baltica remains a top priority among Europe’s transport infrastructure initiatives. This platform, which brings together the industry’s largest players and showcases the latest technologies and trends, enables us to refine our operational strategies, gain insights, and forge new connections,” said Marko Kivila, interim CEO at RB Rail AS.
In 2024, the project is gradually transitioning from the design phase to the construction phase. Currently, construction contracts have been signed for nearly 400 km of the Rail Baltica route, with active work already underway in Estonia and Lithuania, and construction of the main line set to begin in Latvia later this year.
By the end of 2024, Rail Baltica plans to award construction contracts for over 100 km in Estonia, while Lithuania prepares to issue tenders for sections between Kaunas and the Latvian border. Additionally, key system-wide procurements are progressing, including the final stages of the energy subsystems contract and the tender for control-command and signaling.
