LDz to modernize 16 stations
It seems that LDz has found some more money so instead of the initial 13 there will actually be 16 stations that will be modernized.
The modernization includes construction of new, 550 mm high platforms, new information systems and CCTV.
The picture is only for illustrative purposes. It is a small station (11 houses within 1km radius) Ozolsala on the line to Krustpils that is currently being modernized. Picture by Juris Stalažs.
The majority of the stations to be modernized will be in the resort town of Jūrmala where out of the 11 stations located in the main part of the city 10 will be modernized. 3 more will be modernized in the e-talons electronic ticket zone of Rīga on the same line to Jūrmala. While the last three will be on the line to Jelgava.
Stations to be modernized: Zolitūde, Imanta, Babīte, Lielupe, Bulduri, Dzintari, Majori, Dubulti, Pumpuri, Melluži, Asari, Vaivari, Sloka, Olaine, Cukurfabrika, Jelgava. (map)
