Min of Funds and Regional Policy meet in Warsaw to solve rail woes
On November 5, 2024, a workshop on the decline of freight rail transport in Poland was held at the Ministry of Funds and Regional Policy. PKP Cargo plans to focus on expanding intermodal transport as coal transport declines, but DB Cargo's Marek Staszek warned that the potential for intermodal volume in Poland is insufficient to offset the loss of coal shipments.
Despite a tough 2023, the intermodal sector showed growth in 2024, benefiting from EU support. A "Masterplan for Freight Transport in Poland" was presented, offering solutions for growth, including better customer focus and eco-friendly promotions. The rail industry aims for more government support and strategic planning.
