Government Contracts
Vienna/Budapest - The publicly listed STRABAG SE Group has been awarded the
contract to upgrade a 30 km section of railway in south-eastern Hungary via its
Hungarian railway construction subsidiary STRABAG Rail Kft. The contract, which
is worth a total of EUR 364 million, will be executed in a consortium with a
Hungarian partner (STRABAG share: 66 %). With the official signing last week
started the financing phase. It will be followed by a 33 month long construction
phase.
"The dual-track upgrade of this section of railway from Békéscsaba station to
the national border will help to modernise an important link along the Trans-
European Network. This improves the connection between internal markets and the
Black Sea ports," says Thomas Birtel, CEO of STRABAG SE.
Everything from a single source: railway construction, building construction,
road construction
STRABAG is contributing the entire range of the group' services to this
infrastructure project. In addition to the track construction work, the contract
also includes the overhead lines, the safety and signalling systems, the
modification of three stations, including park and ride facilities, as well as
road construction and civil engineering works. The stations Kétegyháza and
Lökösháza will also be adapted to be barrier-free.
