The general director added that the second stage will be the construction of covered warehouses of class A with an area of ​​80,000 m2, and the third stage will be the expansion of the transshipment capacity from 100 to 200,000 TEU per year. The total amount of investments will amount to more than 25 million dollars.

“Mostysk Container Terminal” is a partnership project of “Lemtrans” and “Rail Trans Investment” companies, and N’UNIT and “Levada Cargo” are their partners in the development of container business. Construction of the terminal began in March last year. It will handle containers of all types, including refrigerated ones. After the completion of the construction, it will be possible to quickly reload containers from railway cars of track 1520 to track 1435 and vice versa. This will allow the Mostysk terminal to become the main transport hub between the regions of Ukraine and Asia and the European terminal network in the future, as well as help attract additional transit from China to Ukraine.
