21/10/2024|Companies, Corporate, Sustainability|

The first rail freeway in Spain, which will link Valencia and Madrid, will begin operating in the first week of July 2024. This new rail service, called Autopista Ferroviaria Puerto de Valencia-Madrid Abroñigal, seeks to improve the efficiency of freight transport between these two cities and establish a strategic bridge to Italy. The initial service will have a daily connection, allowing the transport of up to 40 semi-trailers in 20 wagons in each direction, which could transfer more than 15,000 trucks per year from road to rail.
