2024 Annual Report

Reflecting on the 2024, the Alpine-Western Balkan Rail Freight Corridor has taken another step forward in developing infrastructure that supports efficient, reliable, and sustainable rail freight services.

The Corridor facilitates smooth and sustainable freight movement throughout the region by connecting the Balkans, the Adriatic Sea, and the Danube River with the Alps. To meet the EU’s stringent requirements, additional initiatives, such as the Tovarnik – Šid and Dimitrovgrad – Dragoman (Kalotina Zapad) projects focusing on dwell time reduction at the Croatian – Serbian and Bulgarian borders, have been launched and successfully expanded, driving further advancements along the route.

As we present the annual report, it is crucial to highlight the changes that will shape the Corridor’s future. With new regulations on the horizon new European Transport Corridors will soon be established. As more countries join, the Corridor will expand, opening new opportunities and connections across borders and to important ports in Southeast Europe.

However, this is just the beginning. Many more initiatives in the future aim to unlock the full potential of the entire Western Balkan region. The prospects for the railway industry in the region are therefore up-and-coming.
