The network of roads connecting the individual production facilities, warehouses, administration buildings and outdoor facilities has a total length of 75 kilometers, with 60 kilometers of railway tracks additionally criss-crossing the grounds. Seven locomotives, two shunting robots and a traverse are in operation on the tracks.
