| Work Detail |
Centralny Port Komunikacyjny (CPK) has unveiled the visual concept of the Brzeziny station that will be situated on the Warsaw–Lódz high-speed railway and will provide this town access to rail transport, marking a significant step in combating transport exclusion.
The planned station will be modern and multifunctional. It will feature two 400-meter-long, single-edge platforms with a height of 76 cm. The station’s northeast section will house the main hall for travellers, including ticket offices, administrative spaces, security offices, and hygiene facilities. A service area adjacent to the passenger hall will accommodate travellers and staff during operating hours. Two main entrances will be located in the curtain wall facade, positioned in the southeast and northeast sections.
The station will include all essential auxiliary and technical rooms, designed to be coherent and functional. The utility zones will be situated in the western part of the building.
A standout feature of the Brzeziny station is its accessible green roof, designed as a rest area for travelers. The green roof will be at platform level, providing seamless transitions between the communication zone and the relaxation space. Access to the roof will be via ground-level stairs in the underground passage leading to the platform, outdoor stairs, and pedestrian paths in the northeast and southwest areas, as well as an elevator located near the northern entrance.
Further analyses will refine the project’s layout, including platform and track configurations, which may still undergo adjustments.
Warsaw–Lódz high-speed railway (Railway line No. 85) is a priority project for CPK and is expected to open in 2032 coinciding with the launch of a new airport. The line will enable the journey between Warsaw and Lódz to be completed in approximately 40 minutes, nearly twice as fast as the current travel time.
The investment’s benefits extend beyond the residents of these two major cities, improving connections for smaller communities as well. Brzeziny, located in the northeastern part of the Lódz Voivodeship, approximately 20 km from Lódz, will see its transport links greatly enhanced. The CPK high-speed rail system will address the transport needs of residents in this region of Poland. |
