The Italian Astaldi Group has been awarded the contract by Polskie Linie Kolejowe (PKP) to upgrade a section of the E-59 Warsaw-Poznań railway line (Lot IV).

The US$93 million (€82 million contract calls for the reconstruction of track systems for 35 kilometres on the existing line along with the construction of two railway stations, the upgrading of the line’s viaduct system, as well as the building of two additional viaducts.
