Trade Trans Combi SRL sets up a safe and secure parking area for trucks in Curtici, Romania

ESPORG is proud to announce that its member Trade Trans Combi S.R.L. (TTC) from Curtici in Romania is currently setting up a safe and secure parking area for trucks. The parking area will welcome 180 trucks and will be completed in the second half of 2022. Through gold-level certification under the EU-Parking Standard TTC will demonstrate the safety and security of this strategically located transport hub.

Background

The project is supported by the European Union’s CEF programme as part of the Action SecureNetwork, which also encompasses parking areas in Hungary. This Action is embedded in the OTRA Global Project, aiming at deploying parking areas throughout Europe.

The parking area is at a critical point on the Orient/Eastern-Mediterranean and the Rhine-Danube Corridors, which is crucial for road freight on the east-west route. When delivered, the entire project will enhance the integration between transport modes and contribute to a high-quality infrastructure for road haulage.

The parking area is placed adjacent to Trade Trans Combi’s existing rail-road terminal and therefore provides adequate intermodal transport solutions at the Hungarian-Romanian border. Indeed, the terminal is linked directly to the border station at Lőkösháza (Hungary) and Curtici (Romania). It is now the most modern railroad handling and storage facility in Western Romania.

Through the use of renewable solar energy onsite and the deployment of innovative smart booking and payment solutions the project will comply with market and policy requirements for sustainable and lean infrastructure.
