The large-scale renovation of Ghent-Saint-Peter’s station and its surroundings is part of the broader Masterplan Ghent, a forward-looking investment in smooth, safe, and sustainable rail traffic. Taveirne is proud to contribute its expertise within this strategic mobility hub.

Masterplan Ghent
Taveirne is involved in one of the most ambitious railway projects in Flanders.
The project includes a complete redevelopment of the railway infrastructure over a construction area more than 2 kilometers long. Everything in this zone is being renewed: tracks, overhead lines, and signaling systems are gradually being replaced by modern, high-performance systems that meet the demands of today and tomorrow.
This renewal will ensure smoother train traffic flow and better service for passengers.
As a reliable partner, Taveirne is jointly responsible for this sustainable transformation of the railway network around Ghent.
