Poznań Bus Station
Poznań Bus Station is an addition to a large buying centre, as is the railway station. To get from the bus station you gotta go... in the other direction through the mall. Then we go to Level 1, where we go further through the buying mall, close chain stores, with no travel service. In this way we scope something that is simply a substitute for the railway station building, where we inactive have a long way to go to any platforms at level 0 and to platforms 5-6 inactive on the way down.
I don't think there's any traffic at the bus station, due to the fact that any of the buses displayed on the boards just don't come. The announcements are played only by themselves, without being reflected on the ground. There's no news of delays. There are any ghost buses that aren't on the board, most likely delayed, that have already disappeared from the board. But there is besides 1 who stands up, who is not disemboweled, and a large group of people join it. possibly it's any kind of bet. It should be displayed on the boards with an appropriate note. The departure board in the lobby doesn't work, only works smaller outside. During closing hours, the ticket office has no 1 to turn to. The station is presently managed by a municipal company.
There's no timetable on the net site. There's only a plaque with current departures. We can click a fewer days ahead, but we won't get accurate data on the days of each call. The departure agenda is only at the train station. There's no arrival agenda at all. Local connections are mainly operated by the Company of State car Communication in Poznań, presently owned by the Poznań municipal authorities. However, express connections are dominant, commercial.
Wrocław Central Bus Station
The erstwhile station, which was started by the Polish People's Republic, was opened in 1994, so comparatively recently. Still, at the end of his existence he was a image of misery and despair. You can see that in capitalist Poland there is simply a failure to keep even rather a fresh place. The attractive game was intended for a large buying mall, and at the station was intended for its underground, bragging about it as if it were something.
Neither on the net site nor on the site will we find a timetable! There's only a table of current departures. So the basic thing is missing. On Christmas days there are buses on the boards that don't ride.
Local connections service the Company of State car Communications in Wrocław, but the bus station is dominated by express, commercial traffic. The connections of social utility are only in 4 directions: Oleśnica, Sobótka, Jelcz-Laskowice and Oława. The bus station Wrocław Central is managed by the Company PKS Wrocław, which is owned in 54.52% by the Treasury.
Szczecin Bus Station
The railway station has not undergone crucial reconstructions, and the private owner is clearly not curious in undertaking the public utility in this place. The station does not meet modern requirements and is let down, though as specified it works. There's traffic and information on work at 6-22.
The owner of the station is the privatized State car Communication Company in Szczecin. The timetable board is on site and on the owner's website, with this inter-network page being out of date (there are many cards on site about cancelled calls).
PKS Szczecin almost withdrew from its own communication in Szczecin. In addition to commissioned public transport connections to Gryfin and connections to Berlin and Goleniowe airports, there were only 2 own bus connections from Szczecin, which most likely only existed due to the necessity of the bus. Apart from vacation calls, we will find here respective directions of bus station Gryfice and that's all. There are besides 3 privateers not included on the station board.
There is besides no global distribution. Generally, there is simply quite a few timetable and announcement chaos at the station, especially erstwhile it comes to global schedules. 1 can find, for example, the distribution of the line 470 to the Odrański World, not moving since 2017. any decompositions are not even a plaque, but a leaflet glued to a circular post. Many global connections and advertising boards are exclusively in Ukrainian, which, along with the general state of the station, makes us feel in any fallen east country...
Gorzów Wielkopolski Bus Station
Station requiring repairs. A immense part was rented to a clothing store. Treated by the owner as an unnecessary asset that he wants to sell, and transfer his connections to, for example, a fresh bus loop.
The owner of the station is the privatised State car Communication Company in Gorzów Wielkopolski.
The layout board is on site and on the owner's website, and includes global connections to Ukraine.
PKS Gorzów Wielkopolski gradually withdraws from its own communication, focusing on the operation of the ordered group communication Kłodawa and Santok, adjacent to Gorzów Wielkopolski. In this 123-thousandth city, full of circumstances (i.e. on days of study), we will find only 17 departures of own bus station Gorzów Wielkopolski and 3 another bus station companies, allowing to scope the surrounding areas. Even connections to Szczecin have departed the schedule, even though they are connected by an expressway and there is no reasonable railway connection. Hail private cars!
Katowice global Bus Station Centre (Sądowa Railway Station)
At the end of 2020, the existing Katowice Bus Station closed. It was managed by the privatised State Motor Communication Company in Katowice, no longer conducting its own communication, and taken over by the developer, whose goal was an attractive game in the centre of Katowice. Until the station closed, no undertakings were carried out and the station disgusted everyone with the usage of collective transport.
The city put the fresh Katowice global Bus Station in another place. The building is small, but it actually has everything you need. The hotel is open 24 hours a day and the ticket office and the catering station are open from 5-23 a.m. Plus free luggage retention lockers. The timetable is on the site and on the station's net site.
That's what the MDA's advantages are, due to the fact that it's not very good for transport. There are almost exclusively commercial connections here. Only Raciborz can be reached by the National Motor Transport Company in Raciborz (ownership of Raciborski and Wodzisławski districts). The remainder is simply a private opinion, which means we'll only go where they have a profit.
The erstwhile station, although not in the immediate vicinity of the railway station, was easy to walk between the stations. He was besides well placed in relation to another places in downtown. The fresh bus station is little connected to the railway station – narrow sidewalks, anti-speed lights, side streets. So the 450-metre long can be overcome... free public transport bus connecting both stations, driving all 5 minutes.
Gliwice Bus Station
The bus station, or, in fact, what is left of it, is at the best possible place – by the railway station. The seat of the State Motor Communications Company in Gliwice was located not far from the station. The company PKS Gliwice has been privatised, respective transformations, mergers and divisions. Eventually, its office close the station were assigned to a large-area store, leaving only a fuel station. A fresh office was set up distant from downtown. There, the global Gliwice halt was arranged, to which all its own connections, another bus stations and long-distance commercial carriers specified as Eurolines were transferred. It is not easy to get there, and at the place it looks temporary: respective benches, worlds, cash in containers, platforms only painted in the square, no waiting room. Around the site of truck and semi-trailer stops and repair facilities.
PKS Gliwice yet liquidated its own communication, so Gliwice only has access to commercial transport. any of them inactive take place from the erstwhile bus station, where there are single departure stations. The rescue for Gliwice is the railroad.
In conclusion, in no case did the stations decently fulfil their functions. But they were stations in the largest Polish cities. In the province, the painting is even worse. Capitalistic Poland cannot supply good communication that will service people. The dictatorship of commercial centres and private carriers applies.
