Project description:

Project: "Improving the work of the DB Port Szczecin container terminal in Ostrów Grabowski"

under Measure 3.2. Development of maritime transport, inland waterways and multimodal connections, priority axis III Development of the TENT-T road network for multimodal transport of the Infrastructure and Environment Operational Program 2014 - 2020

Co-financing agreement no. POIS.03.02.00-00-0040/18-00

Project value: PLN 22,096,839

Co-financing: up to PLN 8,298,728

The implementation of the Project allows to achieve the specific objectives set by DB Port Szczecin:

• Modernization of the management system for cargo handling and container flow through the terminal, thus increasing its internal capacity
• Acceleration of internal transport processes at the terminal, including accelerated handling of formal activities necessary to introduce goods to the Polish market (providing cargo for customs, veterinary, phytosanitary inspection, etc.)
• Increasing the storage capacity dedicated to refrigerated containers
• Creating conditions to launch permanent intermodal railway connections (first to Kąty Wrocławskie and Kalisz/Ociąża)
• General improvement of the quality of the reloading services provided and the terminal maintaining its competitive position
• Increasing the number of new reloading operations performed by the Company
• Increasing the value of sales and increasing the profit level of DB Port Szczecin Sp. z o. o., and as a result, increasing the company's value
• Increased interest of potential investors in the location of operations in Szczecin; increasing the cargo potential supported by the terminal through the feedback

Within overall economic range, the objectives of the Project are:

• Shortening the handling time of intermodal units in the Polish transport system
• Increasing the share of intermodal transport in the total cargo transport in Poland
• Contribution to a better balance of the transport system in Poland
• Reducing the negative impact of transport on the natural environment
• Reducing automotive congestion and increasing safety on Polish roads

Output indicators
