Grant of nearly half a billion unlocked. "We couldn't let this money go to waste"
The Centre for EU Transport Projects has released over 479 million PLN for infrastructure projects after a corruption investigation. This funding was previously blocked due to allegations against Tramwaje Śląskie officials. The president of Tramwaje Śląskie emphasized the importance of restoring the company's credibility and ensuring the future of vital investments. The funding will support tram infrastructure modernization in seven cities, with a total project value of 341.7 million PLN. Additionally, a contractor has been selected for a new tram line in Katowice, expected to be completed by mid-2029.
