Moves to rejuvenate the importance of rail transport
His main objective is to increase the role of rail transport. "We have a chance of making sure that the railways do not lose their importance, as happened in Western Europe. Nowadays the EU is heavily investing in the sector, as it is a safe and environmental friendly form of transport. We need to change the way the company is managed to make it operate according to corporate rules," said Mędza. He announced that fees for using railways would be lowered in order to increase its competitiveness. In turn, this will increase competition and will lead to further lowering of costs in PKP subsidiaries. In related news PKP president Maciej Męclewski, resigned from his post.
