Government Plenipotentiary for CPK: First the railway to Wrocław, then the tunnel under Warsaw

The construction schedule for the high-speed rail (KDP) has been revised, prioritizing the connection from Łódź to Wrocław over the costly tunnel under Warsaw. This change aims to significantly reduce travel time between Łódź and Wrocław by 70 minutes. The new line is expected to be completed by 2035, while the tunnel project will be delayed, with its completion now projected for 2032. The KDP line will connect the new airport with Warsaw and Łódź, maintaining its original timeline. However, the tunnel's construction will face challenges due to its depth and urban environment, potentially leading to delays.
