Modern cargo terminal for the “Erfurter Kreuz” Industrial Park

For the construction of one of the most modern logistics terminals on the site of the former freight station in Arnstadt, Deutsche Bahn will invest a 2-digit million sum. This will ensure modern and climatefriendly logistics in the “Erfurter Kreuz“ industrial area, because goods can be transported 100 percent emissionsfree by rail starting today. By using this terminal, 2.3 million truck kilometers could be saved, which corresponds to approx. 2,822 tons of CO2. That also means less traffic, exhaust and noise pollution for local communities. The State of Thuringia, Deutsche Bahn AG, the City of Arnstadt and LEG inked a framework agreement for support activities at the end of October. They include broadening the surrounding streets, building a bike path, upgrading the Arnstadt train station, restoring nearby areas to their natural state and renovating structures in the city center.
