PKP PLK has chance for PLN 7 bln from SAFE to invest in railway projects
PKP Polskie Linie Kolejowe is breaking investment records, with the value of contracted and tendered railway projects more than tripling from PLN 17.3 billion at the end of 2023 to PLN 54.4 billion by the end of 2025. Further growth is expected in 2026, driven by major tenders, including new rail lines and upgrades. Investment volumes are set to rise by an additional PLN 10 billion. Alongside civilian infrastructure, PLK plans a significant increase in projects of military and dual-use importance.
Up to PLN 7 billion could be financed from the EU SAFE programme, supporting strategic rail corridors and key junctions. While funding potential is strong, prolonged tender procedures and contractor appeals risk delays and could threaten the absorption of EU funds, highlighting the need for streamlined regulations.
