Description

Modernisation of the railway line Warsaw - Lublin (170 km) and renovation of the Lukow - Lublin bypass.

Objectifs

The project will increase the quality of rail services provided in Poland as well as promote travel by rail and will, thereby, enhance sustainable transport, in line with EU objectives. Most of the project is located in a convergence region, and thereby will improve accessibility and potentially facilitate regional development.
The project is expected to generate substantial time and vehicle operating cost savings by allowing for more efficient use of existing rail capacity as well as promoting modal shift from road to rail through facilitating better rail services. Adding capacity would allow an increase in the frequency of regional trains and thus a noticeable modal shift from cars to rail, which would result in environmental and safety benefits.
