Project Summary

INECO is undertaking design and supervision services for constructing the Latvian north section, running along the Estonian and Latvian border to Vangazi, Latvia. This section includes 41 overpasses, eight ecoducts, and 17 viaducts, one of which stretches 1,480 meters over the Gauja River. In addition to the vast amount of assets, the site also contained peatland that created geotechnical issues. Knowing that they needed to work with over 200 professionals across Europe, the United Kingdom, and South America, INECO sought digital solutions. 

The team used ProjectWise to create a connected data environment that allowed them to grant access to a validated source of information, while OpenRail and OpenRoads helped model hundreds of kilometers of the roads and railways. When complete, the project will help link the Baltic states to the European Union, saving 5.3 million passenger hours per year, EUR 7.1 billion in climate change costs, and over 400 human lives over the next 30 years.
