# SYSTRA to contribute to railway modernisation project in Poland

![SYSTRA to contribute to railway modernisation project in Poland](https://www.systra.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/sans-titre.jpg)

The scope of the contract includes the modernisation of the so-called
‘bottleneck’ of the main connection of Lower Silesia with the seaports of
Szczecin and Świnoujście on the Baltic Sea coast. The major improvements of line
capacity will be achieved thanks to reconstruction of the railway bridge over
the Odra River. The elaboration of the design will be preceded by detailed
sampling and tests that allow for the assessment of the technical conditions of
the nearly 400-metre-long engineering facility.

Apart from the bridge, the design documentation also covers a 3-kilometre
section of the railway line, were scope of the design included modernisation of
track alignment, drainage and culverts, overhead contact system, railway
signalling, telecom and non-traction power supply infrastructure. In addition,
the SYSTRA contract also includes a full administrative procedure for obtaining
the required decisions and permits.
