A terminal with a cargo turnover of 200 thousand tons per year for container trains will be built in the Omsk region.

The Government of the Omsk Region and the Omsk Transport and Logistics Center have signed an agreement on cooperation in the field of investment activities aimed at the implementation of this project.

The purpose of the investment project is to create a transport and logistics center. It is planned to build a terminal carrying out loading and unloading operations of containers arriving by container trains, with the further creation of a network of railway terminals representing a freight yard, with infrastructure for container turnover and linking to the existing railway station. The implementation of the project will significantly reduce the delivery time of the shipped goods.

"This will speed up the delivery of goods to the Omsk region from major seaports - St. Petersburg and Vladivostok - due to regular container trains and shifting the volume of cargo delivery from the automobile network to the railway," said Governor Alexander Burkov. To date, Omsk ranks first among cities with a population of one million in terms of the volume of shipped goods of its own production per inhabitant. Last year, Omsk enterprises shipped goods worth 828 billion rubles, which is 726.4 thousand rubles per citizen of Omsk.

Governor Alexander Burkov signed an agreement between the Government of the Omsk Region and the initiator of the investment project, OOO Omsk Transport and Logistics Center. The company is headed by Igor Gorozhankin. The parties agreed to join forces to implement this project in the interests of socio-economic development of the region. Operational cooperation with the initiator of the project is carried out by the Omsk Region Development and Investment Agency. 

The investment capacity of the project exceeds 150 million rubles. The facilities planned for construction, including a terminal with a cargo turnover of 200,000 tons, are expected to be commissioned no later than 2023.

As a result of the implementation of the investment project, at least 100 new permanent jobs will be created and tax revenues to the consolidated budget of the Omsk region will be provided annually in the amount of at least 50 million rubles.
