A warehouse complex costing around 100 million euros will be built in the Nikrāce parish of the Kuldiga region, thus there will be four military facilities in this region, reports LETA.
In the Nikrāce parish, new construction is planned on an area of 629 hectares. It will include warehouses, hangars, administrative buildings, auxiliary structures, access roads, and engineering communications, as reported by the LETA agency from the Ministry of Defense.
The development of the site is planned under a public-private partnership scheme. Construction is scheduled to be completed in 2029 or 2030. The project is being implemented by SIA "Valsts nekustamie īpašumi" on behalf of the Ministry of Defense.
