The priority task was to increase the capacity on the main tracks on lines No. 131 and 353 (Poznan Wschod - Skandawa). For this purpose, 3 turnouts, sleepers under the turnouts (turnout sleepers) and in the tracks were replaced. After replenishing the ballast, tamping machines, i.e. special machines for regulating the track, were working on site. As a result of the work, the vast majority of speed restrictions were eliminated. This allowed for the improvement of the capacity of the Inowroclaw station and the running of trains at scheduled speed. - Consistently, as part of maintenance works, we are working on reducing the number of speed restrictions on the railway network throughout the country. As a result, with a small expenditure of effort and resources, we improve the conditions for passenger and freight transport.
