Upgrade and electrification of line section Vinkovci – Vukovar<\/span><\/h1>\n

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

Railway line Vinkovci – Vukovar<\/strong> (18.7 km) as a railway line for international traffic is part of the railway freight corridor RFC10 “Alps – Western Balkans”<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

On 21 May 2018 H\u017d Infrastruktura d.o.o. signed the Grant Agreement<\/strong> KK.07.5.1.05.0001 as part of the Operational Program “Competitiveness and Cohesion” 2014 – 2020 (OPCC) from the Cohesion Fund with the Ministry of the Sea, Transport and Infrastructure <\/strong>(MSTI) and Central Finance and Contracting Agency <\/strong>(CFCA). The value of the Grant Agreement is EUR 89.9 million, <\/strong>and the total eligible costs <\/strong>amount to EUR 68.5 million<\/strong>. The maximum amount for the co-financing of eligible costs of the Project is EUR 64.4 million<\/strong>, of which EUR 54.7 million<\/strong> or 85 percent<\/strong> is co-financed from OPCC<\/strong> and the remaining amount of EUR 9.7 million<\/strong> or 15 percent<\/strong> is co-financed from the State Budget of the Republic of Croatia.<\/p>\n

The Project implementation period according to the Grant Agreement is 03\/2016 – 12\/2024.<\/p>\n

The Grant Agreement covers the following activities:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Project management<\/li>\n
  2. Publicity and visibility<\/li>\n
  3. Works<\/li>\n
  4. Supervision<\/li>\n
  5. Additional costs (contingencies)<\/li>\n
  6. Land acquisition<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    On 20 December 2019 H\u017d Infrastruktura signed Works contract<\/strong> with consortium consisting of COMSA S.A.U. and COMSA INSTALACIONES Y SISTEMAS INDUSTRIALES S.A.U. in the amount of EUR<\/strong> 49.9 million.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    On 14 March 2019 H\u017d Infrastruktura signed a Service contract for supervision of works<\/strong> with a consortium consisting of RUBICON ENGINEERING EAD and SPC ENGINEERING EOOD in the amount of EUR 1.7 million<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    Carrying out of works on the Vinkovci – Vukovar<\/strong> railway line will enable it for train speeds of a maximum of 120 km\/h, and journey time will be reduced. Electrification of the section ensures economically and energetically more profitable and ecologically sustainable railway transport. The capacity of the section is also increased and access to the port of Vukovar is improved, which contributes to the economic development of the local community and the recovery of the eastern part of Slavonia. Within the scope of works, parking lots for cars and bicycles have been arranged in stations and stops, which enables easier access for people with reduced mobility, and the construction of walls ensures noise protection for residents who live along the railway line. The safety of all traffic participants is increased by installing a modern traffic signalling and telecommunications system and the construction of pedestrian subways.<\/p>\n
