Territorial planning in the framework of the implementation of the Rail Baltica project continues — the concrete solutions for the railway infrastructure maintenance depots of Panevėžys and Kaunas are being made public. The special territorial planning document, which will be accessible to all interested parties, provides for the specific sites for the construction of depots and related facilities. The duration of the publicity procedures is two months.
The Rail Baltica project provides for two infrastructure maintenance depots in Lithuania — in Kaunas and Panevėžys. “These facilities will be an integral part of the newly built European railway and will ensure the maintenance of all sections of Rail Baltica. Of course, new jobs will also be created in these regions,” says Loreta Maskaliovienė, Deputy Minister of Transport and Communications.
