In January this year, PKP Polskie Linie Kolejowe S.A., on the same railway line, also made available to passengers a modernized stop in Wólka Niedzielska on the same railway line.

Between Zamo?? and Be??ec, as part of the "Government program for the construction or modernization of railway stops for 2021-2025", PKP Polskie Linie Kolejowe S.A. commissioned the following stops in 2023: Wólka Niedzielska, Niedzielska Kolonia, Szczebrzeszyn Miasto, D?ugi K?t.
From the end of 2023, passengers will also be able to use the modernised Zamo?? Starówka stop on railway line No. 72. The Zamo?? Old Town platform is longer after the reconstruction.
