RBC reported that the total area of the object amounts to 4 hectares. The terminal will consist of warehouses with the area of 17,350 sq.m., and offices with the area of 1,400 sq.m. Besides, it is planned to construct a parking for 50 road-trains.

"The main target of the new customs terminal is consolidation of the trade flows from the countries of Central Europe. Some time ago we as well as the most part of operators worked in Helsinki, but very soon we understood that it is not profitable to transport cargo, for example, from Italy to Finland and only then to Russia”, S.Shidlovsky said. According to him, the terminal will service cargo 24 hours a day, since the project envisages construction of 40 loading gates. About €5 mln. will be invested into the project. The terminal will be put into operation in winter-spring of 2007, S.Shidlovsky said.
