Environmental sustainability and transport efficiency have always represented two corner stones of Voltri Terminal Europa. With this perspective, the Terminal focuses its attention on the development of an intermodal railway system, a valid alternative to container truck transport.

VTE has an internal railway park with eight platforms of 950 meters each, on which three modern cranes load and unload the trains.

A strong point for this service is its direct connections with the main interports of Northern Italy, such as:

Milano.
Rivalta. Serviced by shuttle trains, it allows “fast corridor” service for the continuation of the unloaded goods from the ships, thanks to a true customs corridor that connects VTE to this important railway junction.
Vittuone Arluno.
Reggio Emilia.
Padova Interporto.
Verona Quadrante Europa
Rubiera “fast corridor”.

In 2016, railway traffic accounted for half of the 120 trains a week and a total of 184K TEU moved.
