Poland has implemented 60% of its National Railway Programme, which is the largest rail investment strategy in history. Since its launch, PKP PLK completed and settled projects totalling EUR 2.3 billion (PLN 10 billion) and EUR 7.4 billion (PLN 32 billion) is the value of the ongoing projects. In the same time, the infrastructure manager is preparing projects for a new perspective.
“Until recently, it was considered whether we would be able to implement the entire National Rail Programme. Today, we see that we could accomplish even more tasks. We strive for the goal of a safe, comfortable and punctual Polish railway,” Andrzej Adamczyk, the Minister of Infrastructure, said.
Nearly 2/3 of the Programme is either completed or in progress, totaling EUR 9 billion (PLN 40 billion). In the previous financial perspective, at a similar point, the value of implemented projects amounted to EUR 5.2 billion (PLN 22.7 billion).
The National Railway Programme envisages 220 projects valuated at EUR 13.9 billion (PLN 60 billion) which includes the modernisation of 9,000 k of tracks. The programme is carried out while maintaining the timetable of passenger trains and ensuring the transport of goods.
