📋 Tender Overview
04/12/2025 Its time for the second line in Oborniki We are starting the construction of the second line of the railway bridge in Oborniki - we are installing a new crossing span, weighing a total of over 500 tons. We want to complete all the works, for approximately PLN 100 million from KPO, in the second half. next year. In this way, we are paving the way for double-track trains between Poznan and Pila. The new, additional span of the railway bridge over the Warta River has already been transported from the production hall in Kielce. The structure is almost 154 m long in total. It arrived in Oborniki in pre-assembled parts, which will be connected at the construction site into spans: two spans of 45.35 m and one of 63 m. In total, they weigh over 500 tons. Each element will be precisely mounted on the existing current supports using a special crane placed on the river bank, right next to the current railway bridge. After installing the spans, the structure will be connected, and then we will lay a new track on it and install the overhead contact line. The installation of the spans, although technologically complicated, will not significantly affect railway traffic. During the works, over 70 passenger and freight trains passing daily between Poznan and Oborniki will use the adjacent line of the crossing, as before. The additional line of the bridge means greater travel possibilities between Poznan and Pila (railway line no. 354) - the route, important in regional and long-distance traffic, apart from the new bridge crossing, will gain a total of over 3 km of a second track: between the checkpoint Oborniki Wielkopolskie Bridge and the Oborniki Wielkopolskie station (over 2 km) and in Parkowo, where we are building a passing line (an additional track with turnouts over 1.2 km long). Thanks to the elimination of the bottleneck on the busiest section of the railway line, more trains will be able to travel. As part of the work, we are building new platforms in Oborniki and Parkowo. In both towns, works are advanced - in Oborniki the platform will soon be ready for operation. These will be tall structures that will enable easy and comfortable use of trains. We will prepare shelters, benches and bright lighting on an anti-slip surface, and for good information we will install clear boards and display cases containing, among others: schedule. With blind people in mind, we will create guiding paths. The platforms will be available to all travelers, including those who have mobility problems: in Parkowo, convenient communication will be possible via a ramp, and at the Oborniki Wielkopolskie Miasto stop, a new passage under the tracks, equipped with elevators. Works, as part of the project Construction of a second track with a second bridge crossing over the Warta River on the section of railway line 354 from the Oborniki Wielkopolskie Most branch station to the Oborniki Wielkopolskiego station, We run the project for nearly PLN 100 million, using European Union funds from the National Reconstruction and Resilience Plan (KPO). We want travelers to benefit from the effects of the investment - new platforms and additional track - already in the second half of the year. next year. The works currently being carried out will increase the number of double-track sections on the Poznan - Pila line by almost 10%. Currently, trains use two tracks between Poznan and Oborniki (approx. 26 km) and Dziembowek and Pila (approx. 10 km). We are constantly analyzing the possibilities of further works on the route - we will be able to specify them in the coming years, when the sources of financing in the next EU perspective are known. The construction of the second track and the second strand of the railway bridge in Oborniki will complement the modernization of the line between Poznan and Pila, completed in 2019. The investment has shortened the travel time - the fastest trains now cover the route in approximately 70 minutes, even approximately 35 minutes shorter than before. New stops: Poznan Podolany, Zlotniki Grzybowe, Zlotkowo and Bogdanowo brought the railway closer to the residents, and the reconstruction of 34 platforms in 22 towns (including Pila, Chodziez and Rogozno) improved travel comfort. Safety on the route has been increased by modern control devices and renovated crossings. The work, worth approximately PLN 500 million (net), was carried out using EU funds under the Regional Operational Program of the Greater Poland Voivodeship.
