Reconstruction of the Line Nis - Presevo - Macedonian Border

The railway line Nis - Presevo is one of the oldest railway lines in Serbia and part of a Pan-European transport corridor, Corridor X, connecting Europe to Serbia, North Macedonia and Greece. A reconstruction of the line would enable higher quality passenger and freight services, provide interoperability of the line along Corridor X, enhance traffic safety, and bring improvements in the carrying capacity of the line at the most critical sections.

This WBIF technical assistance grant has supported the preliminary investigation, consisting of:

• identification and analysis of the possible variants (options) for modernisation of the line and the optimal solution proposed; and
• investigation of the technical and technological investments, and economic and financial evaluation of the selected option.
