Just to remind. Back in August 2022, in the middle of the war, we completed 20km of new track reconstruction. That track was closed for 17 years. We done it in 2 months. And then we waited for another 4 months while Romanian railways completed its part of the job.
We also brought brand new diesel train to the route. Made in Ukraine during the war, btw.
Commissioned 2 newly built distances on the border with #Romania: #Rakhiv-Berlebash-Border 19.3 km and Teresva-Border 1.1 km.

These lines where closed 11 and 15 years ago respectively.
Now Romanian Railways has to do it's job and rehabilitate 16km on Romanian side. And then we will have another acting border connection for cargo and passenger transportation.

Why this project is important for cargo transportation?
As of today we have 2 border connections with Romania, and that's where we have the highest waiting line. Adding this new border connection we can add up to 6 more trains a day, that's another 3,5 million tons of cargo p.a.
