Abkons and ILF to deliver the Durrës–Prishtina railway feasibility study

Abkons has joined ILF Consulting Engineers on the feasibility study and concept design for a railway linking Durrës, Albania's main port, with Prishtina.

A regional infrastructure question

A rail link between Durrës and Prishtina would connect Albania's main port with Kosovo. Before it can move forward, planners need to know whether it is workable and what form it should take.

The feasibility study and concept design answer those questions. Abkons and ILF Consulting Engineers deliver the assignment as a joint venture.

For Abkons, the study shows the model behind our growth: regional knowledge combined with the engineering depth of an international partner, on infrastructure that links the region together.
