Construction Stage 1
Max speed 120-160-240 km/h
16
OUR MAIN CHALLENGES
1. „Rail Baltica“ is the bigest infrastructure project of Lithuania;
2. Extremely short time for implementation;
3. Necessity to split implementation in to the parts, to coordinate separate
Contractors;
4. Works to be done on acting railway line during the traffic breaks;
5. Necessity to coordinate technical parameters, time table, take in to account the
needs and wishes and find common solutions with Neighbour countries,
Municipalities, Private People, Companies, State institutions.
17
OUR ACHIEVEMENTS 2010-2015 (1)
Following completion of international public procurement tenders, contracts were signed with Consultants and Designers, who: -Completed and presented feasibility studies, which examined the possibility of splitting the entire line into separate railway sections; -Completed technical designs; -Obtained separated construction permits for each of the railway sections, which were based on the territory of one or few municipalities. Lithuanian Railways, through the Ministry of Transport and Communication of the Lithuanian Republic, coordinated the approval of technical solutions and planned work schedules with municipalities and other public institutions. If there was a necessity, the tripartite agreements were signed between the Ministry of Transport and Communication, individual municipalities and Lithuanian Railways for the implementation of the Rail Baltica project in the territory of the specific municipality.
18
OUR ACHIEVEMENTS 2010-2015 (2)
The procurement of the construction works was executed through the international tenders. For some specific railway sections, in spite of an extremely important time factor, due to the excessive prices, which were included in the tender proposals, public procurement procedures were terminated and repeated (in some cases – up to 3 times). Proposals were evaluated based on the method of economic efficiency, combining the proposed shortest timeframe for the construction completion and the lowest price.
19
OUR ACHIEVEMENTS (3)
After the completion of technical design and obtainment of the construction permits, between April and July, 2013, 11 construction contracts were signed with 5 main contractors (tender winners), who made use of over 30 subcontractors. Moreover, 6 additional contracts were signed to provide Technical supervision and supervision of technical design implementation. Lithuanian Railways (specifically "Rail Baltica" project directorate) conducted the function as the daily coordinator: - Construction works had to be carried out simultaneously in all the railway sections and only during the railway traffic breaks without the stopping the regular train traffic, construction work schedules were thoroughly coordinated with each of the contractors, Contractors capacity was verified on weekly basis (special films where produced to fix changes in construction works and discussed and improvement possibilities discussed with Contractors).
1. FEASIBILITY STUDIES AND TECHNICAL DESIGN WERE FINANCED
TEN-T program – 50%, remaining 50% by State budget and Lithuanian Railways (LG)
2. CONSTRUCTION WORKS: 2.1 For section from PL/LT border to Marijampolė

TEN-T – 21,4mln.EUR (7,1%) STATE BUDGET – 5,1mln. EUR (1,7%)
Cohesion Fund – 144,7mln. EUR (48, 1%) LG – 129,9mln.EUR (43,1%)
3. 2014-2020 EU financing period activities are financed 85% from Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) program and
remaining 15% by State budget and Lithuanian Railways (LG)
