Construction begins at biggest Baltic airport


Construction of DHL's regional facility was started at Riga airport (RIX) last week. The centre will be among the most advanced express shipment handling and logistics centres in the Baltics.

 

The agreements provide that in cooperation between RIX, DHL Latvia and Castor Construction, a regional shipment processing and logistics centre spanning an area of 4,500 sqm will be built during the course of the year. A total of EUR 12 million will be invested in the project.

 

RIX board member Artūrs Saveļjevs: "This will ensure stable long-term air cargo flow at our airport and strengthen our position as a regional air traffic hub not only in passenger, but also in cargo traffic. The development of the cargo segment is particularly important at a time when passenger traffic has been significantly affected by the Covid-19 crisis." (ah)
