The largest hub multimodal TLC "Uralsky" in the region has opened in Yekaterinburg.
On November 1, the first stage of the creation of the largest hub multimodal TLC Uralskiy in the region was officially completed in Yekaterinburg. At this stage, a container terminal with a capacity of 300 thousand TEU per year was launched, providing simultaneous servicing of several full-length container trains.
The Uralsky TLC is located in the north-east of Yekaterinburg in close proximity to the Yekaterinburg Ring Road. On an area of more than 130 hectares, a technological complex with a capacity of 600 thousand TEU per year is being created through private investment. The first train with containers in gondola cars to the new TLC departed from the Apparatnaya station.
The formation of the Uralsky TLC is carried out in the "green logistics" format, which provides for the promotion of environmentally friendly rail transport, as well as modern multimodal logistics technologies that eliminate the risks of adverse impact on residents of adjacent territories and allow for the creation of a technological reserve for the long term.
The core of the TLC is a container terminal with a developed railway infrastructure capable of providing simultaneous servicing of several full-size container trains (71 conventional wagons). In addition, the center's territory includes two container sites with full-size fronts 1,050 m long, customs infrastructure, including a covered temporary storage warehouse, a depot for uncoupling repairs of platforms, a railway accumulation and sorting yard, an electrified receiving and dispatch yard consisting of four tracks 1,050 m long each. The total deployed length of the terminal's railway tracks is about 25 km.
Taking into account that the facility is being built within the city limits, specialized technological parking lots are provided on the TLC territory in order to reduce the load on the city's street and road network from trucks. The technology allows for accelerated processing of container trains in just three hours.
Southeast Asia will be the main source of imported cargo, Alexander Kakhidze, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Fininvest Group (TLC Uralskiy is part of the holding), told Gudok.
“China, mainly. Taiwan, India, Indonesia – the Asia-Pacific region. Trains that arrive from the Far East will operate in the intra-customs transit mode, as will direct trains along land crossings, also in the intra-customs transit mode,” he shared.
Alexander Kakhidze added that transportation directly to Yekaterinburg (without calling in Moscow) will allow customers to reduce both travel time and costs…
