On September 22, Rail Baltica Estonia re-announced the first stage of procurement for the construction of railway infrastructure at the Ülemiste terminal and its surrounding areas through the public procurement procedure.
The project aims to rebuild the existing railway infrastructure to make room for the future construction of the Rail Baltica 1435 mm European standard gauge railway. Nearly 16.3 kilometers of existing tracks will be demolished, and over 8 kilometers of new 1520 mm gauge railways will replace them. Additionally, other railway systems will be rebuilt, such as contact networks and electrical supplies.

The construction work must ensure that functioning train traffic on the main roads is not disrupted, and, for this purpose, the temporarily existing relay-based traffic control system will be reconstructed. The procurement scope also includes the reconstruction of utility networks crossing the railway and the Kantis viaduct.
This year, a separate tender will be announced for the construction works of the railway undercarriage structures of the Ülemiste joint terminal, which will complete the underground floor of the future passenger terminal named "Linda." The construction of the structures will begin after the demolition of the existing railway and must be completed before the construction of the new railway line. As a result, the infrastructure contractor and the terminal construction contractor will have to work together closely.
