A new intermodal rail freight service connecting the Cervignano Intermodal Terminal, near Trieste, and the Pan\u010devo Dry Port Terminal, near Belgrade, will start operations on 11 May. The service can be seen as the evolution of a block train service which was running between the terminal in Italy and the Indija terminal in Serbia.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>A first service between Cervignano and Indija was launched in September<\/a> on behalf of I.CO.P., an Italian construction company shipping its tubes to Serbia for large civil works. The new service will serve a different terminal in Serbia but will be operated by the same company AlpeAdria. Instead of being a one-customer service, the company is now open to transporting P400 trailers, swap bodies and 45\u2019\/40\u2019 containers.<\/p>\n

The new service, just like the old one, is part of a project launched by Friuli Venezia Giulia, a region in the northeast of Italy, to boost rail freight traffic to and from Serbia. From Cervignano, for example, there is a connection to Duisburg and the possibility of reaching Rotterdam. Moreover, the Trieste-Belgrade route is part of the TEN-T Mediterranean Corridor, which runs from Spain to Greece in the south and Hungary in the east.<\/p>\n
