The Polish subsidiary of Austria’s Strabag has won a €298m contract from national railway operator PKP for construction around Maksymilianowo railway station.

Work involves modernisation of the 201 rail line, running between Maksymilianowo and Kościerzyna in the country’s north west.

The line forms part of the Baltic-Adriatic Corridor and the Trans-European Transport Network, known as TEN-T.

Strabag will reconstruct 38km of track, build four railway bridges, one road bridge, a road viaduct, modernise three platforms and create a railway flyover across the intersection of freight lines 201 and 131.

Station renovation work will increase capacity and allow freight transport to travel to the port of Gdynia.

Péter Glöckler, a member of Strabag’s management board in south and east, said: “Poland has become one of Strabag’s most important markets alongside Germany and Austria, particularly in infrastructure construction.”

Construction is due to be completed in December 2029.
