Despite an overall reduction in the income base of RZD, the investment budget of its branch Sverdlovsk Railways was curtailed only a little to RUB 24.3 billion (EUR 286 million) in 2015.
Most of the spending was made on measures to increase the throughput and capacity of the railways, to ensure a smooth and safe railway transportation process.
In 2015, the company reconstructed 161.6 kilometers of rail tracks (at 15 sections) including the reinforcement of engineering structures, with winter track laying activities in 3 sections 26.5 km long.
Total investment in the renovation and upgrade of the locomotive fleet was RUB 5.1 billion (EUR 60 million).
