Unfortunate but the project still needs to be completed. As well as the connection to Finland whenever that happens.
No doubt everybody’s stealing right and left.
At the moment, in the most mature section from Kaunas to the border of Lithuania and Latvia, the railway bedroad and engineering structures are being built in a section of almost 30 kilometers from Kaunas towards the Latvian border, the construction of the longest railway bridge in the Baltic States over the Neris River is intensifying.
In other sections of the project, Kaunas-Vilnius and Kaunas-Lithuanian-Polish border, special plans are currently being finalized, design works are being procured. After the approval of the special plans (planned for the first half of 2024), land acquisition and design activities will be carried out simultaneously.
Rail Baltica is the largest railway infrastructure project in the history of the Baltic States, during the implementation of which an electrified European-standard two-track railway will be built, connecting Warsaw, Kaunas, Vilnius, Panevėžys, Riga, Pern and Tallinn.
