Last week, Rail Baltica hosted a delegation from Port Polska during a working visit to Riga. Port Polska is a Polish state-owned special purpose vehicle (SPV) responsible for the delivery of a strategic national transport infrastructure programme with strong European added value and global impact.
The visit focused on knowledge exchange related to the delivery of large-scale European transport infrastructure projects. Discussions covered grant management under the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF), institutional capacity building, financing models, and the practical challenges associated with the implementation of complex cross-border rail projects.
As part of the programme, the delegation visited Riga Central Station, where they were introduced to the progress of Rail Baltica works on site. The site visit was organised in cooperation with Eiropas Dzelzceļa līnijas and the Ministry of Transport of Latvia.
The meeting provided an opportunity for both organisations to exchange experience and good practices, contributing to strengthened cooperation and a shared understanding of challenges faced by major European rail infrastructure projects.
