This contract is already the eighth contract of AŽD in Poland, where the company has long been a reliable partner in the modernization of railway infrastructure. AŽD participates in the project as a subcontractor to the construction company PPMT, with which it successfully completed the modernization of the Glincz - Kartuzy line last year. The current project, co-financed by the European Union, will be implemented over the next 36 months.
AŽD will deliver a fully digital interlocking system StationSWing ESA 44-PL for two railway stations and a line section of 28 km. The project also includes the installation of 28 electromotive point machines, 105 signals and four level crossings. Part of the technology, such as telecommunications and passenger information systems, will be provided in cooperation with Polish partners. One of the key tasks of the project is the modification of the railway station Gdańsk Osowa, where AŽD will cooperate with Alstom.
„Winning this contract confirms our strong position on the Polish market and the high level of reliability and expertise that our partners appreciate. The cooperation with PPMT on the previous project was so successful that it led to another contract, which we appreciate very much,“ said Zdeněk Chrdle, CEO of AŽD.
AŽD thus confirms its ability to deliver technologically advanced solutions and contribute to the development of railway transport not only in the Czech Republic but also on foreign markets.
