📋 Tender Overview
The new building of the main train station in Mlada Boleslav is taking its final shape. The columns and reinforced concrete elements are already finished and the roof structure is also completed. The modern environmentally friendly and architecturally distinctive building will serve as a multifunctional transport hub.
Construction work started in Mlada Boleslav a year ago. A new ground-level building is being created on the site of the original structure characterized by brick bands and also prominent overhangs towards the tracks and the forecourt. These will serve as a roof for the adjacent platform bus stops and entrances to the building.
Train stations are the gateway to the railway and therefore they should motivate passengers to use train transport not the other way around. This project can serve as an example of good practice. The station will be equipped with a green roof and quality insulation which will contribute to low operating costs and high comfort for passengers. Full accessibility is also a given said Minister of Transport Ivan Bednarik during todays construction inspection day.
In the new check-in hall passengers will have access to toilets a clear information system and modern furnishings. There will also be beverage and food vending machines. The entire building is designed to be accessible and the height difference between the hall and the first platform will be leveled by a sloped ramp.
The rough construction is complete. All reinforced concrete structures and ceiling slabs in the check-in hall area are finished as well as the outer and inner walls including partitions. Prefabricated roof panels have also been laid. Work on insulation and thermal insulation continues in the elevated part of the building a tank for rainwater collection is completed and rain drainage is being installed.
Builders still need to install the prefabricated base panels and the steel structure of the canopies around the entire perimeter of the station building. They will install windows and doors and finally they will start building the brick facade and fine-tuning the last details.
The estimated total cost of the new station construction reaches 157.5 million crowns with completion planned for this November.
The project is financially supported by a loan from the European Investment Bank as part of the Czech Rail TEN-T and Regional project. National financing is provided by the State Fund for Transport Infrastructure.
