Starting from January 9th, trains on Warsaw's suburban cross-city line resumed travel on two tracks, following the completion of a crucial stage in the connection construction between the suburban and long-distance cross-city lines.

The work is part of the Warsaw West rebuilding project, the largest investment by PKP Polskie Linii Kolejowe S.A. in Warsaw, which has a net cost of around PLN 2 billion and is co-financed by EU funds from OPI&E.

The resumption of two-track travel on the Warsaw suburban diameters allows for more convenient journeys on the Warszawa Zachodnia - Warszawa Śródmieście - Warszawa Wschodnia section, with around 300 more connections compared to the previous number of trains.

The modernization of the station will provide greater accessibility and improved travel comfort. All platforms will be covered, and the addition of moving stairs, lifts, a dynamic information system, and wide walkways will facilitate access to trains. The project also aims to make it easier to combine rail and public transport and ensure safe rail traffic management through modern equipment and computer systems.
