Planning

Now[when?] OJSC "NIIP Gradostroitelstva" has completed the elaboration of an area planning scheme for Kingiseppsky district. This scheme determined the functional purpose of the project land. FSUE "RosNIPIUrbanistiki" completed [when?] a Master Plan of the Vistinsky[clarification needed] settlement. The Master Plan includes the location of Ust-Luga Multimodal Complex as well. JSC "Lenaeroproject" made investigations and prepared a positive opinion on the technical possibility of constructing a cargo airport on the grounds of the Ust-Luga Multimodal Complex. The airport will be able to accommodate all types of cargo aircraft. Regulative bodies of the Leningrad region gave their approval to locate the cargo airport.[1]

Accidents and attacks

On 21 January 2024 the Security Service of Ukraine conducted an overnight drone attack on the gas terminal, causing a large fire, which took over a day to extinguish.[2] Gas producer Novatek subsequently suspended all operations at the complex in response to the attack.[3][4][5]
