In Transcarpathia, they want to build a river port on the Tisza (PHOTOS).

On the banks of the Tisza River in the Transcarpathian region, a new river port with a multimodal terminal may appear.

This was announced by the first deputy head of the Regional Military Administration Myroslav Biletsky.

The State Enterprise "Administration of River Ports" appealed to the regional military administration with a request to allocate a land plot for the creation of such an object. The prospects for the implementation of this project were discussed during a meeting together with specialists from the relevant departments of the regional military administration, the Tisza Basin Water Administration, and border guards.

A multimodal terminal is a production and transshipment complex that is used for loading, unloading, storing goods, etc. It can be located on the territory of railway stations, airports, sea and river ports. Thanks to this, it is possible to organize international transportation along the Tisza with access to larger navigable rivers.

"The river port and multimodal terminal will be the first facilities of this type within Zakarpattia. It is difficult to overestimate its importance for international transportation for the country and our region in particular.

We study the documentary base, problematic issues, communicate with all interested structures in order to develop a strategy for the implementation of the project as soon as possible," said Myroslav Biletsky.
