UTK refuses to terminate contract between PKP PLK and PKP Cargo

The President of the Office of Rail Transport (UTK) refused to approve the termination of a contract between PKP PLK (Polish Railway Lines) and PKP Cargo regarding rail capacity usage for the 2023/2024 timetable. PKP Cargo had failed to pay infrastructure access fees on time and did not meet financial guarantee obligations. Terminating the contract would restrict PKP Cargo’s access to the Polish rail network, which could disrupt key sectors, including energy, infrastructure, and fuel transport. UTK emphasized the public interest, noting PKP Cargo’s critical role in military logistics and the economy.
Due to these factors, UTK denied the request to terminate the agreement.
