Design proposals submitted for Rail Baltica’s Šveicarija-Žeimiai section

Design proposals for the Šveicarija-Žeimiai section of Rail Baltica will be presented by Spain’s IDOM on July 1, 2020. IDOM is also responsible for the detailed technical design of Rail Baltica section Kaunas-Ramygala.

The Šveicarija-Žeimiai section is 12.2 km long and includes two road viaducts, one railway viaduct and one road underpass, two regional stops and one passing loop.

Special scientific modelling is being used to ensure appropriate noise reduction where needed by implementing special dampening measures and building noise barriers. This section will have a total around 746m of noise barriers. 

Additionally, three passages will ensure that animals will be able to safely cross underneath the railway.
