Rail Baltica I RB Rail AS’ Post

Spain = reference in High Speed Rail

The European Commission has been clear about its demands for the construction of #RailBaltica. The railway needs to be finished and have trains running by 2030 to continue funding. A key question is whether or not #Latvia capital city #Riga will be connected to the line by that time. https://lnkd.in/e9iugmv8 #railfreight #railfreightnews #railcargonews

Friendly advice on looking at this map:  Average speeds are not a good metric when measuring the quality of rail service, unless you are a fan of high-speed only rail networks! After all, you can only get good averages if you skip a lot of stations or they are very very spaced!

They say Sweden is not ready when the Danish-German mega-project is ready. Another important voice and an interesting article in Sweden have highlighted the transformative potential of the upcoming Fehmarn Belt tunnel between Denmark and Germany. Set to dramatically shorten travel times to the continent by 2029, this monumental project promises to reshape travel and cargo flows throughout Nordic Region, directly connecting Scandinavia to Germany. This is poised to reshape the map we know today, creating unprecedented business opportunities and new transportation patterns. In anticipation of this, Denmark is proactively investing in new infrastructure to maximize the potential benefits once the tunnel is operational. This initiative demonstrates the significance of preparing our infrastructure to fully exploit the opportunities this connection will offer. By eliminating infrastructure bottlenecks and upgrading facilities, Sweden, along with the entire Nordic region, can look forward to enhanced connectivity, stronger economic ties, and more efficient transport routes across Europe. So, will Sweden be ready? How should Sweden (but also Norway) adjust their infrastructure to maximize the Fehmarn Belt tunnel's benefits? Also, what impact will the tunnel have on economic and business landscapes across the Nordic region? Let me know your thoughts in the comments.

🌍🚄 Connecting Europe through High-Speed Rail: we are honored to have LTG Infra CEO Vytis Zalimas joining leading railway representatives at the International High-Speed Railway Development Conference in Łódź. 💬 As Vytis Žalimas highlighted, connecting to Western Europe through #HighSpeedRail is not just about improving travel times; it’s about building a stronger, unified Europe. “When we close the missing links in our networks, we unlock key economic benefits, strengthen regional security, enhance road safety and regional development. High-speed rail is a vital element in our shared commitment to sustainable and resilient infrastructure,” he said. As Baltic countries, Poland and central Europe focuses on connecting with the Western Europe, Žalimas emphasizes the importance of cohesive and efficient railway network.  🌐 “The development of high-speed lines to the west is a priority, and we should work at all levels to persuade our neighbors not to forget the eastern route with #RailBaltica. As we implement the EU's TEN-T vision, we need to remember that only by connecting all regions can we realize the full potential of the European transport network. Each part of the European rail network has a unique value and if we miss any one of them we risk losing values that benefit Europe as a whole,” said CEO of LTG Infra, Rail Baltica implementing body in Lithuania. #TEN_T #SustainableTransport #ConnectingEurope

📢 Rail Baltica on global spotlight! Rail Baltica, one of the largest EU railway projects, was recently showcased on The B1M, the world's leading construction video platform. This feature explores RB Rail AS | Rail Baltica's advanced planning and construction phases, illustrating the project's sheer size and complexity. Set to transform transportation and mobility, Rail Baltica will have a profound impact on connectivity within the Baltics and the wider EU.

RB Rail AS | Rail Baltica will not pass through all of #Riga before 2030. #Latvia is missing three billion euros for the completion of the line through its capital city. The city has been a major obstacle for the construction of the line, and the entire project risks losing one billion euros in #EU funding if not completed on time. #railfreight #railfreightnews #railcargonews
