Investments by 2030 will be directed toward laying 50 km of track and modernizing the energy system to synchronize the growth of port capacity with Russian Railways' capabilities.
At a briefing with his deputies, Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin announced the allocation of nearly 70 billion rubles by 2030 to expand the railway infrastructure leading to the Novorossiysk seaport.
Funds will be allocated under the national project for the construction of approximately 50 kilometers of new track over the next five years. This year alone, approximately 400 million rubles will be allocated for the advanced construction of the railway yard, the reconstruction of the traction substation, and the main track.
This decision is part of a large-scale state program to develop new logistics routes and increase highway capacity. As Mishustin noted, the goal is to ensure reliable product supplies and create comfortable conditions for the movement of goods and passengers throughout the country.
Novorossiysk, as Russia's key seaport on the Black Sea, plays a strategic role in export-import operations, and expanding its land connectivity directly impacts the capacity of the entire transport hub.
As a reminder, the government recently required stevedores to organize and pay for underwater inspections of the bottoms of foreign vessels for explosives. The new regulations come in the wake of incidents indicating external interference recorded in 2025 at a number of ports, including Ust-Luga. LR
