Advanced works are underway on platforms No. 1 and 2, where the construction of bodies and the laying of the platform edge are in progress. Then, we will install restored, historic shelters, a dynamic passenger information system, benches, information displays and clear signage on the platforms. Platforms 1-3 will be accessible by elevators, which will significantly facilitate access to the railway for travelers with limited mobility. The elevators will lead to the underpass under reconstruction, which will be wider and higher after the works are completed. The basic structure of the passage is ready.
