For the first time PJSC Lengiprotrans began to consider the development of railway approaches to the port of Ust-Luga in 1992, when he took part in the development of the General Scheme for the development of seaports on the shore of the Gulf of Finland in the Baltic Sea.
The impetus to large-scale construction was the active development of the port for the planned increase in cargo turnover to 180 million tons, of which 118 million tons will have to be delivered by rail.
In 2011, the Ust-Luga Company established that by 2013–2014 the port's freight through the railway component is planned to be within 60 million tons.
The main goal of the project was the development of technical solutions for the maintenance of terminals of ULTK (Ust-Luga Container Terminal), AJPK (Automobile and Rail Transshipment Complex), MPC Yug-2 (Multi-profile transshipment complex Yug- 2 "), warehouse logistics center.
