The construction of the Baltic Container Terminal berth KS-34 has been completed and commissioned by City Development Department of Riga City Municipality on June 5^th 2024.

After extension the total length of the quay is 506,3 meters, which allows mooring of ships whose length reaches 340 meters and serve simultaneously two large container or military vessels. Extension also significantly improves the quality of services and speed up operations provided by the Baltic Container Terminal.

This project is partly being 50% co-financed by the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Agency (CINEA) military mobility project. This is being carried out in conjunction with Riga Freeport Authority under project objective of “Enhancement of the Dual Use Capacity of Riga Port by investment in Road, Railway Access and Berth Infrastructure.”

             

The construction of the Baltic Container Terminal berth KS-34 has been completed by more than 85% and are nearing completion. The construction of the ground side rail base of the crane has been completed and rain drainage networks have been built. Concreting works of the quay superstructure is underway. The preparation of the base for the construction of the pavement of the quay has been started.

This is being carried out in conjunction with Riga Freeport Authority under project objective of “Enhancement of the Dual Use Capacity of Riga Port by investment in Road, Railway Access and Berth Infrastructure.”

Despite the winter conditions – snow storms and low temperatures, the construction of the Baltic Container Terminal berth KS-34 is progressing.

47 reinforced concrete piles of length of 16 meters have been driven in for base of crane rail beam.  Static loading of two reinforced concrete piles was carried out to verify their bearing capacity. The reinforced concrete formwork of the superstructure facade has been completed and installation of rainwater drainage wells and reinforcement and molding of the crane rail base beam is underway.

The construction of the Baltic Container Terminal berth KS-34 is progressing as per schedule - underwater section of the construction works is coming to the completion.

280 grooved piles with a length of up to 23.15 meters have been installed, 24 pipes with a length of 21.8 meters have been driven in, and the work of strengthening the anchors of the quay and adding sand in the quay body is nearing completion.

The progress of the quay construction was also briefed to the National Armed Forces (NAF) representatives from National Defense Academy (NDA), which visited the terminal on November 2nd, 2023 as part of a planning Course for NAF and allied officers. During the visit, terminal capacity and ability to promote military mobility were discussed.

Hili Company's container terminal in Latvia, Baltic Container Terminal have commissioned a solar park over the rooftop of one of its warehouses. Spread over 11,600 sqm, the Solar park consists of 1,974 solar panels with a capacity of 1.1MW.

The active phase of the construction of the Baltic Container Terminal berth KS-34 has been started. The metal pipes that form the base of the quay crane rails have been delivered, and part of the sheet pile quay wall has also been built.

After extension the total length of the quay will be 506,3 meters, which will allow mooring of ships whose length reaches 340 meters and serve simultaneously two large container/ ro-ro or military vessels.
