In collaboration with to Esplan company , ZHA will be in charge of leading the creation of the futuristic terminal , which will be part of **the Baltic railway line (Rail Baltic) , an initiative that aims to unite ** Finland , Estonia , Latvia , Lithuania and Poland .

The Ülemiste terminal will thus become the starting point of the electric train what will go through 870 kilometers from Europe , connecting **Tallinn, Riga and Vilnius** with the European high-speed rail network.

On the other hand, this building has been conceived as a public connecting bridge , as well as a multimodal transportation hub for passengers of national and international trains and those coming from Tallinn airport.

Inside, the circulation routes that run through the space facilitate the integration of bus, tram and rail lines that intersect at the terminal.

"I have been constantly informed of the evolution of the Ülemiste area and, in light of the works presented to the public today, I am more than convinced that the area is becoming one of the most attractive and, in terms of infrastructure, synergistic of Tallinn," said Taavi Aas, Estonian Minister for Economic Affairs and Infrastructure.
