Russia: Mordovcement, part of Eurocement, has launched an investment programme to rebuild local railway infrastructure.
The investment offers funding for the full replacement of 9.1km of track and 42 switches. The proposed repairs will guarantee the continued safe use of the railway infrastructure for the supply of raw materials. The US$3.14m project will raise the turnover of wagons for the loading of cement and will help to establish the stable delivery of cars of raw materials from the quarry to the production area. The development will boost the reliability of the railway track as a whole and extend its lifecycle, reducing the complexity and cost of maintenance and obtaining economic benefits during its operation.
