Development of public public transport in Wielkopolska by purchasing new and modernising rolling stock for voivodship rail services

The Project’s material scope comprises two tasks: 1. Delivery of 10 new five-member electric traction units for carrying out voivodeship passenger transport services, 2. Modernisation of 5 electric traction units of type EN57 owned by the voivodship. Planned for purchase and modernisation of electric traction units will be operated by Koleje Wielkopolskie Sp. z o.o. (lease) on the following sections of railway lines currently operated by Przewozy Regionalne sp. z o.o.: • Line no 271 Poznań Główny- Rawicz – new rolling stock, • Line no 272 Poznań Główny – Jarocin – modernised rolling stock • Line no. 272 Poznań Główny- Ostrów Wielkopolski – modernised rolling stock, • Line No 272/281 Poznań Główny- Krotoszyn – modernised rolling stock. • Line no 351 Poznań – Krzyż – new rolling stock. With regard to the organisation of transport, including the construction of timetables and the circulating process guaranteeing the best possible use of the rolling stock, the rolling stock covered by the Project will also be used in other relations in the field of voivodeship rail transport (defined in accordance with the Act of 16 December 2010 on public transport). Project effects will be generated mainly on selected sections of railway lines. The purchased and modernised rolling stock will have parameters adapted to the characteristics of the railway lines on which it is intended to be used. Furthermore, the project (with regard to the basic technical parameters of rolling stock) will comply with applicable EU and national legislation. Product Indicators for the Project: • Number of units purchased (pieces) – 10 units. • Capacity of purchased passenger wagons (persons) total number of seats and standing in the traction unit – 5 300 persons • Number of modernised railway vehicles (pieces) – 5 pieces. • Capacity of modernised passenger cars (persons/total number of seats and standing in the traction unit – 1,500 persons).
