Estimated total gross cost of the investment: approx. EUR 21 300 000.00
Grant Agreement for the Project 101158165 — 23-PL-TM-Intermodal Gdynia “Construction of an intermodal terminal in the Logistics Center of the Port of Gdynia” co-funded under Connecting Europe Facility (CEF).
The subject of the project is the construction of an intermodal terminal in the existing Logistics Center of the core network seaport – Port of Gdynia – located on the Baltic – Adriatic Core Network Corridor (CNC).
The terminal will increase the sea-to-rail handling of goods, featuring the first stationary vehicle ramp in the Port of Gdynia. Furthermore, it will enable wider use of existing storage yards, increasing the share of intermodal transport in the Port of Gdynia.
The intermodal rail terminal will consist of: 2 tracks with a length of approximately 750 m ending with a stationary loading vehicle ramp, an access track and a link track, a concrete-paved manoeuvring and holding yard, entry road, a railway and road system and a retention tank.
The project includes the use of innovative technologies as part of the railway traffic control system, such as electric heating of turnouts on the basis of atmospheric conditions measured by weather transducers controlled automatically by the railway traffic control system.
The new terminal addresses the dual-use requirements, as defined in the Regulation 2021/1328, under railways (railhead operations, max train length, loading gauge) and multimodal equipment handling (ramp axle loading).
Project starting date: 21 September 2023
Project end date: 20 September 2026
Project duration: 36 months
The objective of the project is to adapt the infrastructure of the Port of Gdynia to the requirements of dual, civil-military use, and thus increase the share of intermodal transport through the construction of a new intermodal railway terminal in the Logistics Center.
The project will also contribute to increasing cross-border mobility of EU/NATO armed forces and will eliminate the bottleneck in the infrastructure of the Port of Gdynia in the Baltic Sea – Adriatic Sea corridor of the TEN-T network.
The infrastructure project titled “Construction of an intermodal terminal in the Logistics Center of the Port of Gdynia” was submitted on September 21, 2023 in a call under the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) – Transport.
Earlier on the same day, the project obtained the Letter of Support – Member State Agreement sent by the Ministry of Development Funds and Regional Policy.
On September 19, 2023, the project received approval from the Centre for EU Transport Projects in terms of environmental aspects.
On January 23, 2024, the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency (CINEA) sent an Invitation letter to grant preparation together with an evaluation summary report -ESR.
