CPK construction of 4.6 kilometer tunnel starting in Łódź

Centralny Port Komunikacyjny (CPK) announced a tender for a 4.6-kilometer high-speed rail tunnel near Łódź Fabryczna. This tunnel is a crucial part of the "Y" high-speed rail line, connecting Warsaw, CPK, Łódź, Wrocław, and Poznań, which is a priority investment. The tender opening is planned for the end of September, and the tunnel will be the longest and widest in Poland, using a TBM machine. The project is expected to be completed by 2032, reducing travel time between Łódź and Warsaw to approximately 40 minutes.

The tunnel will have two tracks, allowing bidirectional travel.
