Rail Baltica mainline in Latvia will include 16 regional mobility points, apart from the international passenger stations in Riga.
Both Riga Central Station and Rail Baltica station at the Riga International Airport are currently under construction.
With a speed of up to 200km/h, regional trains of the Rail Baltica line will stop both at international stations and regional stops.
Different modes of transport, including railway, state and municipal buses, private vehicles and electric vehicles, scooters, bicycles, and all other micro-mobility tools, will be brought together by regional mobility points.

“To implement this, cooperation among all the parties involved and the local government plays crucial role for full use of the potential offered by the Rail Baltica stations in the future.”
