en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Zaragoza Maritime Terminal (Terminal Marítima de Zaragoza, tmZ) has inaugurated its latest expansion on its 25th anniversary, increasing the terminal area by 50,000 square meters, extending the railway tracks to 1,000 meters, and boosting storage capacity by 50%, making it one of the largest inland terminals in Spain in terms of capacity.

A key technical highlight of the project is the commissioning of a new railway connection, transforming the terminal into a through-type facility. This layout allows trains to enter and exit from both ends of the infrastructure, eliminating unnecessary shunting operations, optimizing operational time, and improving railway traffic flow.

In 2025, tmZ achieved a historic record of 85,418 TEUs, becoming the national leader in container throughput and consolidating its position as the largest intermodal logistics hub in Southern Europe. Participants in the 25th anniversary celebration included representatives from the Government of Aragon, Mayor of Zaragoza and tmZ Chairperson Natalia Chueca, President of the Port of Barcelona José Alberto Carbonell, and Mercasa President José Manuel Miñones.

Natalia Chueca stated that this expansion is part of a long-term strategy that is placing Zaragoza at the heart of major European economic flows. tmZ General Manager Ramón Adé noted that the expansion aims to transform the infrastructure into a large-scale logistics hub specializing in international maritime trade. The day's events included a tour aboard a historic train departing from Zaragoza Delicias Station, celebrating the infrastructure's contribution to the internationalization of Aragon's economy and the development of more efficient and sustainable solutions since its operation began in 2001.

After 25 years of history, tmZ embarks on a new operational phase, aiming to continue connecting Aragon with the world, enhance the competitiveness of the business ecosystem, and help position Zaragoza as one of Europe's major logistics hubs.
