📋 Tender Overview
29/10/2025 We are paving the way to the nuclear power plant. Another step towards ensuring rail access to the planned nuclear power plant has been made. Polskie Linie Kolejowe S.A. signed a contract for the modernization of the route from Lebork to Leba along with the construction of a section of a new line towards the power plant and Choczew. Completion of the investment worth nearly PLN 1.5 billion net is planned for 2029. The construction of the Lubiatowo-Kopalino nuclear power plant is of strategic importance for the countrys energy security. The PLK SA investment will, on the one hand, ensure the transport of employees and goods by rail during the construction and operation of the power plant, and on the other hand, it will create new opportunities to travel by train for residents of this part of the Pomeranian Voivodeship. As part of the task, a 32-kilometer section of railway line No. 229 between Lebork and Leba will be modernized. The stations and stops Lebork Nowy Swiat, Nowa Wies Leborska, Garczejrze, Ledziechowo, Wrzescie, Steknica and Leba will be rebuilt. A new Lebork Zachodni stop will also be built. The platforms will be adapted to the needs of people with limited mobility. Passenger and freight trains will run at speeds of up to 120 km/h. The line will be electrified. Currently, passenger connections on the route are operated only in the summer. The implementation of the works will create new opportunities for carriers in the context of ensuring year-round railway connections. In the area of the Steknica station, the construction of a new section of railway line No. 230 towards the planned Lubiatowo-Kopalino nuclear power plant and the Choczewo station will begin. New stations and stops will be built on the 30-kilometer route: Szczenurze, Sarbsk, Osetnik, Slajszewo - Elektrownia, Lubiatowo - Kopalino, Jackowo, and the existing Choczewo station will be rebuilt. Passenger trains will run at a speed of up to 160 km/h, and freight trains up to 120 km/h. The line will be electrified. Importantly, for the transport of construction materials to the power plant construction site, the stations will be adapted to handle freight trains up to 750 meters long and with an axle load of 221 kN. A total of 115 engineering structures will be built or reconstructed on both lines, including bridges, viaducts, passages under the tracks, animal crossings and culverts. Safety in railway traffic will be ensured by new control system devices. We will also modernize rail and road crossings, which will increase the level of safety at the junction of roads and tracks. Task titled: Execution of works on the section Lebork - Leba - Steknica - Slajszewo Power Plant - Choczewo, as part of the project titled Providing rail access to the Lubiatowo-Kopalino nuclear power plant will be implemented by Torpol SA. for the amount of PLN 1.44 billion net (PLN 1.77 billion gross), from the state budget. The investment is scheduled to be completed in 2029. Let us remind you that in September this year. we signed a contract for renovation works on the alternative route to the nuclear power plant, i.e. on the section of line No. 229 between Kartuzy and Lebork. The third stage of the project will be the modernization of line No. 230 on the Wejherowo - Choczewo section. The implementation of the works will ensure access to the railway for the inhabitants of this part of Pomerania after over 30 years. The selection of a contractor for this stage is planned for the second quarter of 2026, and the completion of all works in 2029.
