📋 Tender Overview
The Minister of Infrastructure, Alenka Bratusek, together with the Minister of Public Administration, Franc Props, and the Mayor of the Municipality of Litija, Franci Rokavec, symbolically opened the renovated Litija railway station today. The new station offers passengers a modern and friendly user experience and improved conditions for the daily use of rail transport.The renovation of the Litija railway station, which is one of the largest in terms of passenger traffic, took place from January 2024 to April this year. Two new island platforms, 160 and 250 meters long, with canopies and urban and information equipment, were built. The existing tracks 1, 2 and 3 were renovated, as well as the newly built track 4, which is intended for stopping passenger trains on the Litija-Ljubljana route. The total length of all four tracks is 1,390 meters. For safe access to the platforms, the existing 39-meter-long underpass was renovated, which was extended across all tracks and now allows crossing the station in the station area. Elevators have also been installed to access the platforms, allowing easier access for people with disabilities. The station building has a new facade, a renovated waiting room and new restrooms for passengers. The station platform in front of the building was also renovated and a new canopy was installed. The electrical and telecommunications equipment and the overhead line were upgraded with the adaptation of the signaling and safety devices to the new state. A new parking lot with 171 parking spaces for passenger cars was built in the station area, of which 9 parking spaces are intended for disabled and functionally impaired people. The project also included the construction of a new 130-meter-long connecting road between the new parking lot and the Hofer roundabout, the construction of a bus turnaround, and the arrangement of a new access route for passengers along track number 4 with a direct connection to the underpass and platform infrastructure. The value of the total investment is 21 million euros, of which the European Union contributed 4.76 million euros from the Connecting Europe Facility.
