Improved rail connection between the Netherlands and Poland

Schavemaker, a Dutch logistics service provider, has extended two railway tracks of its rail terminal to the southwest of the Polish city of Wrocław. The extended tracks were officially opened in October by the Dutch Minister of Infrastructure, Cora van Nieuwenhuizen.
Under the project, which envisaged the extension of two tracks to 600 metres, from 400 metres, the terminal is able to handle two trains at a time and a total of six trains a day.
In addition, the company has also announced a new direct rail link between Southern Poland and Moerdijk, a municipality in the South of the Netherlands.
In 2019, Schavemaker will launch a new direct train link between South Poland and Moerdijk. At the outset, there will be two container trains per week. Eventually, four trains a week will travel along the railway, reducing the number of container lorries making the road journey to and from Poland each week by 300.
Schavemaker has launched the construction of a new logistics center the city of Kąty Wrocławskie. The building under construction will have a 5,000 m² warehouse, loading ramps with a capacity of up to 12 tons, zero-level ramps, a warehouse office and social facilities. The planned handover of the facility to use should take place in the middle of 2019.
