Budimex completes PLN 1.9 billion port access project in Gdynia

Budimex has successfully completed a major contract aimed at enhancing railway access to the Port of Gdynia, valued at PLN 1.9 billion net, the company announced.

“We are currently in the final stages of project handover, with all major works completed. The project involved the installation of 39 tracks, marking the largest railway infrastructure project in Budimex’s history,” said Piotr Czupryn, the contract director.

The project involved a comprehensive reconstruction of the Gdynia Port railway station, pre-port areas, and associated infrastructure. This modernization will accommodate longer freight trains, up to 750 meters, significantly improving the capacity and efficiency of logistics services at the port.

The large-scale operation engaged nearly 600 workers and 200 pieces of equipment daily. It included the modernization of 115 km of tracks, installation of 359 switches, electrification of port access, and the reconstruction of 13 km of roads, a railway bridge, and 25 crossings. Additionally, two new viaducts, a Local Control Center, two railway yards, and a new PKP Cargo office building were constructed.

Budimex, a key player on the Warsaw Stock Exchange since 1995 and part of the WIG20 index, continues to contribute to strategic infrastructure projects, including upcoming works on the Outer Port in Gdynia.
