At the end of July 2022, publicly listed construction group Strabag signed a contract in Croatia for the modernisation of a 44 km railway line between Zagreb and the port city of Rijeka.

Level crossings along the line will also be replaced by over- and underpasses. The contract has a value of HRK 1,713 million (equivalent to € 228 million) and is mainly being co-financed through the European Union’s Cohesion Fund.

“The modernisation of the railway line between Hrvatski Leskovac and Karlovac, which is situated along the Mediterranean Corridor of the Trans-European Transport Network, will improve the transport links between the port of Rijeka and the markets in Hungary, Slovakia and Poland in the long term. We are delighted to be able to make a significant contribution to this undertaking,” says Thomas Birtel, CEO of Strabag SE.

Planned completion of the section in April 2025

Construction is due to start in October 2022 and is scheduled to last for 30 months. After completion, trains will be able to travel along the line at speeds of up to 160 kilometres per hour.
