The route indirectly covers also Finland, which means the project affects also the Scandinavian countries. Rail Baltica is part of the TEN-T core network and the Adriatic Sea – Baltic Sea corridor, and is identified as a priority TEN-T project of the common interests of Europe. In Latvia and the other two Baltic States, the present railway gauge width is the Russian standard 1 520 mm, while in the majority of the Member States the gauge width amounts to 1 435 mm. Therefore, the existing railway network and rolling stock in the Baltic States is not compatible with the railway network in Poland and Germany. In 2011, the three Baltic States commissioned AECOM Ltd. to carry out the Feasibility study “Feasibility study on the European standard width railway line in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania (Rail Baltica corridor)”, which included a recommendation regarding the preferred railway line route alignment. In 2014 – 2015, the Baltic States carried out studies, planning, and an environmental impact assessment, and elaborated the engineering solutions for the envisaged railway line. The project shall be co-funded by the European Union. In 2015, the funding for Stage 1 of the project was received; in Latvia, this shall be used for the design and construction of the main section from Riga city centre to Riga International Airport. The whole Rail Baltica shall be completed by 2025 (Figure 1). Implementation schedule of the Rail Baltica in Latvia Experts of the national study projects from Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia were in close cooperation and observed the Common principles for the Rail Baltica 1 435 mm Railway Spatial and Territorial Planning and Preliminary Design Study elaborated and approved by the Rail Baltica Task Force. The national study for Latvia was carried out within the agreement concluded by and between the Ministry of Transport and the general partnership “RB Latvija” – “Detailed technical study and environmental impact assessment of the Latvian section of the European gauge railway line Rail Baltica” (ID No. SAM 2012/12 TEN-T) (hereinafter – Detailed technical study or Study). The Detailed technical study is carried out within these projects co-funded by the European Union: “Studies on the European gauge railway line (Latvian section)”, Project No.2007-LV-27050-S.
