- The main objective of the project is to improve the efficiency of cargo handling in the Rijeka basin and to improve connectivity of the Rijeka basin (and consequently of the whole Rijeka port) with the TEN-T railway network. Specific objectives of the project are the rehabilitation of damaged infrastructure, making unused infrastructure functional and creating wider operation space in rail tracks and crane tracks area, improved interoperability, faster port operations, increased safety and better quality of service.
The Rijeka Basin is part of the Port of Rijeka. Its existing railway infrastructure is aging, severely damaged and unsafe, hindering the efficiency of daily port operations. The aim of the project is the creation of a larger operational area by the reconstruction of the railway infrastructure connecting the quays and piers of the Rijeka basin. The activities include dismantling and removal of the existing infrastructure, reconstruction of installations, drainage and waste water system, reconstruction of pavement surface and reconstruction of railway tracks and crane rails. The project is developed in parallel with other railway infrastructure upgrading Actions at the Port of Rijeka cofinanced by CEF, which contribute to the improvement of port operations as well as the facilitation of the transport of goods.
