The general construction company BERERIX has completed the first 6 months in the construction of Rail Baltica Riga Central Junction. The stage was marked by two intensive processes that take place simultaneously: infrastructure construction works in the southern part of the project and design works for the entire Riga Central Junction.

Around 80% of the new underground infrastructure for railways and utilities has been built during the construction works, as well as most (70-90%) of the project's urban infrastructure - electricity networks, telecommunications networks, heating networks, sewerage and water mains. As a result, construction work related to the replacement of rails and preparations for intensive construction works of the above-ground station building have started. 

The design assignment involves 250 Latvian and foreign designers and engineers to analyse, adapt and incorporate the requirements of all Riga stakeholders and interested parties and the solutions offered in a sustainable, modern and efficient mobility centre. More than 10,000 drawing documents have been prepared and submitted for approval in the project.

Rail Baltica Riga Central Junction is divided into 8 construction projects of different intensity and location. More than 50 directly responsible parties, as well as about 100 organizations and experts are involved in their development: Riga municipal institutions and experts, infrastructure managers, non-governmental organizations representing the interests of the urban environment, residents and the disabled, residents' and neighbourhood associations and representatives of the transport sector.
