Such cooperation will make it possible to combine passenger service functions with services for residents. After the reconstruction of the current railway station building in Dąbrowa Białostocka, apart from the space-related passenger service (waiting room, toilets), the commune is planning to open an information and promotion center for the region on the leased space. The building will also house rooms connected with railroad traffic service. PKP S.A. undertook to finish the premises following the standard adopted by the local government. The parties to the agreement have also undertaken to cooperate at each stage of the investment.
"PKP S.A. cooperates very broadly with local governments throughout Poland. One of the manifestations of these activities is cooperation on railway station investments. This model has already worked in many places in the country. PKP invested in a railway station, and the space there has been leased by the local government. For example, in the railway station in Kobylnica (Wielkopolskie Voivodeship), which was opened this week after reconstruction, there is a village common room whereas, in Pobiedziska, a library will be opened soon. We want to achieve a similar effect in Dąbrowa Białostocka," says Ireneusz Maślany, member of the board of PKP S.A.

Currently, the reconstruction of the railway station in Dąbrowa Białostocka is being prepared. In the nearest future, a functional-utility program specifying the initial scope of the investment will be drawn up. It will be detailed at the stage of drawing up project documentation. However, it can already be said that the reconstruction of the station will include the improvement of its aesthetics, functionality, and the possibility of adapting the building to modern standards of passenger service, including for the disabled. In turn, thanks to the installation of modern monitoring and fire-fighting systems, safety at the station and in its surroundings will be improved. The area adjacent to the station will also change, with new parking spaces and bicycle racks planned.
The railway station in Dąbrowa Białostocka was included in the current Railway Station Investment Program last year. The investment will be financed from PKP S.A.'s funds and executed in the "Design and Build" formula. The preliminary estimated completion date of the investment is autumn 2024.
