Poland Map Shows Approved High-Speed Rail Routes for $8 Billion Megaproject The Polish government has approved high-speed rail routes as part of its $8 billion megaproject near Warsaw. The Centralny Port Komunikacyjny, is estimated to be one of the largest construction projects in Europe and is set to connect to the Polish capital by a series of high-speed railway networks. In a statement on the rail development, the project said: "The Centralny Port Komunikacyjny (CPK) is a strategic investment aimed at creating a modern national transportation system that efficiently integrates air, rail, and road transport. As part of the program, a new airport will be built between Warsaw and Łódź, along with a high-speed rail network. The Central Communication Port has an estimated price tag of about 30 billion euros. In June, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced that the high-speed rail connecting the airport to the capital would be the first part of the project to begin construction. #CPK #Poland #highspeedrail #sustainabletransportation https://lnkd.in/d4gF5wg2

At today’s press conference, the Swedish government announced a 27% increase in infrastructure funding. An 18% increase in rail investment marks a significant step in strengthening Sweden’s connectivity! The introduction of new alternative financing models is a positive development. These models will support key cross-border projects, like the Oslo-Göteborg railway, HH-förbindelsen and the Öresund Metro. These projects are crucial for the expected traffic increase in Sweden following the opening of the #FehmarnBelt tunnel in five years. The plan to reinvest the Øresund Bridge revenue into the region from 2029 is also encouraging. Given the strategic role of Skåne and the Øresund region for Swedish trade, investments in port and rail infrastructure are vital.

The Railway Route 10 project represents the largest investment in Kosovo’s railway transportation infrastructure in decades. Over three phases, the project will bring Railway Route 10’s infrastructure and equipment into compliance with Trans-European Transport Network and European Union standards. This includes approximately 150 km of rehabilitated track and new/upgraded stations, signage, telecommunication equipment, switches, track bed, culverts, bridges, and tunnels. These upgrades will allow for an increase in passenger and freight travel speeds up to 120 km/h and an increase in freight axel load to 22.5 tons, helping improve transportation within Kosovo and better connect European markets to maritime trade routes in the Mediterranean.

✅This week the annual “Friends of Rail Baltica” meeting took place, emphasizing the significance of the Rail Baltica project. This project not only integrates the Baltic States into the European railway system but also connects them with other regional countries, establishing a functional corridor for passenger and freight transportation. 🤝🚅With the participation of representatives from the #BalticStates, #Finland, and #Poland, as well as transport ministries and #RailBaltica project supporters from the #EuropeanParliament, discussions were held based on the RB Rail AS provided updates on project progress, challenges, and further implementation strategy to reach the main goal and fulfill commitment by bridging a missing transport link by #2030. 🤝🚅Additionally, an exchange of views on joint support and facilitation opportunities for the project took place, regarding the available EU funding during the current multi-year financing period and beyond. 💬“Despite challenges, the Rail Baltica project is progressing accordingly to ensure the completion of a functioning railway line connecting the Baltic States with Poland by 2030. Clear evidence is seen through ongoing construction works in all three countries and the number of procurements in progress, soon to be launched to construct relevant sections of the Rail Baltica mainline. EU partners’ support is more than essential and inevitable in relation to the architecture of the next fiscal framework and priorities for transport infrastructure development within it,” said Marko Kivila, interim CEO and Chairman of the Management Board at RB Rail AS | Rail Baltica. #CEFTransport European Commission European Parliament Kliimaministeerium / Ministry of Climate of Estonia Satiksmes ministrija / Ministry of Transport Susisiekimo ministerija / Ministry of Transport and Communications Ministerswo Infrastuktury Liikenne- ja viestintäministeriö - Ministry of Transport and Communications, FI
