The rebuilding of a 19-km railway section between Lithuania's Mazeikiai and Renge, in Latvia, that was dismantled a decade ago, has been completed, Lietuvos Gelezinkeliai (Lihuanian Railways), the state-owned Lithuanian railway company. The trial run has already been done. The rebuilding has cost 9.4 mln euros. The track has been rebuilt in line with LG's commitment to the European Commission, which in late 2017 imposed a fine of almost 28 million euros on the state railway company for hindering competition in the rail freight market. The railway line was in the past used by the Mazeikiai-based oil refinery Orlen Lietuva, which is owned by Poland's Orlen, to transport its oil products to Latvia.
