More than 100 million PLN is needed for the Fast Agglomeration Railway in the direction of Nowa Huta (7 stops). This cannot be built without EU subsidies. Councillors will therefore appeal to the prime minister, ministers and the EU commissioner for transport to provide financing for this investment from EU funds planned for 2021-2027.

Fast Railway is a priority for Krakow Public Transport
The development of the Fast Agglomeration Railway is one of Krakow’s transport priorities. One of the variants assumes the extension of SKA by the Balice – Nowa Huta Przyczesości line. There are 7 stops to be built along the route: Prądnicka, 29 Listopada, Prądnik Biały, Jagiełły, Kocmyrzowska, Lubocza and Nowa Huta Przyside. Over PLN 100 million is needed for their construction.
EU Help Is Needed!
“Further development of the SKA network in Krakow depends on the city’s ability to raise funds for the construction of new stops. That is why it is fundamental to place this task in the new EU financial perspective for 2021-2027” – we read in the motion for a resolution which will be adopted by the Krakow City Council at the next session. The project was submitted by the councilors of the Platforma club. Modern Civic Coalition.
Construction of railway stops is not the task of the city. But Krakow co-finances their construction as part of Integrated Territorial Investment Strategies for the Krakow Functional Area. This is how stops are built in Swoszowice, Prądnik Czerwony, and the estate Piast. The cost of their construction is about 82 million PLN, 70% covered by the EU subsidy from the Regional Operational Program of the Lesser Poland Voivodeship for 2014-2020.
