“On the one hand, it challenges both the state as the contracting authority and the market participants, but with smart planning it is a good opportunity for Estonian companies both in terms of overall market size and in terms of the development of engineering competence.”

It is noted that the construction of Saustinõmme overpass, the first crossing of the Rail Baltica line that is located in Saku, has already been completed at the beginning of this year.

It includes five European Union countries that include Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and indirectly Finland too. It will connect Kaunas, Pärnu, Helsinki, Tallinn, Riga, Panevežys, Vilnius, and Warsaw.
