NORTH INDUSTRIAL SIDING – construction begins

Building news for December 2022:

The ground-breaking ceremony on 7 December 2022 signalled the official start of work on the North Industrial Siding. The Porr construction company began building the North Industrial Siding two days prior to ground-breaking, on 5 December 2022.

The Graz-South Terminal has been in operation for almost twenty years. This successful Terminal has now reached the limits of its capacity. The North Industrial Siding is intended to extend the terminal so as to ensure that it remains competitive and capable of meeting future demands.

The Industrial Siding will be completed in three stages of construction by the end of 2024

Stage 1: The first stage of construction has already begun and is scheduled for completion by mid-2023. The existing empty container storage area will be extended to the north, along with a new drainage system, and goes into operation as early as summer 2023.

Stage 2: By summer 2024, the southern half of the terminal module will be hard-surfaced and the first crane will go into operation. Handling of full containers in the southern crane track area will then begin.

Stage 3: By the end of 2024, finally, the north terminal module will be hard-surfaced and the second gantry crane will commence work. The Industrial Siding with the four loading rails will also go into operation.
