New Silk Road Network’s partner East-West Intermodal Logistics is constructing the largest and the most modern railway intermodal combi terminal in Europe. They are on track for the trial operations to commence in January 2022. Situated at the gates of the European Union in Fényeslitke (Hungary), near the Hungarian-Ukrainian border, the East-West Gate (EWG) will be the continent’s first land-based intermodal combi terminal using green technology and its own 5G network. The theoretical capacity of the terminal is 1 million TEU per year. Built at one of the strategic points in the economic corridor of the Belt and Road Initiative, the EWG can play a key role in delivering goods between Asia and Europe via an alternative route, delivering faster and in larger quantities than before.
