PKP PLK launched a tender on the planning study for the Warsaw Railway Junction as part of the Rail Master Plan of Warsaw Agglomeration. The chosen supplier will have roughly 3,5 years to create the study, which will get submitted by 2025.

“The development of the transport network in Warsaw determines a new look at the possibilities of the Warsaw Railway Junction. I hope that the order for the preparation of a planning study on the extension of the railway system in the capital, with particular emphasis on the new cross-city line, will allow to identification potential corridors for the construction of new railway lines and stops in Warsaw,” Andrzej Bittel, the secretary of state at the Ministry of Infrastructure, said.

The study will evaluate potential corridors to allow rail extension in the Warsaw metropolitan area. The study will include the development of a cross-city line. The provider will also focus on the needs of new stops, stations, and expansion of current lines. 

“The implementation of the planning study will allow determining the possibilities of rail expansion in Warsaw Railway Junction in the coming years. The document will enable optimal coordination of the development of railways and other means of communication in the capital,” Ireneusz Merchel, the CEO of PKP Polskie Linie Kolejowe, said.

In 2020, PKP PLK and the Idom Consortium signed an agreement for practicality research of the development of additional tracks along the Warsaw-Mińsk Mazowiecki rail line in the Warsaw area. As part of the development of the infrastructure in the Warsaw agglomeration, PKP started in 2020 a tender that covers the modernization and expansion of existing tracks towards the Otwock city (southeast Warsaw).
