It will most likely not be an exaggeration to say that Prime Minister Tusk, at the Wednesday press conference, performed a fik of the year in the category of clearing "mistakes and distortions" of the erstwhile ruling team. The murmuring announcements of the purification of the Central Communication Port can be inserted between fairy tales. Not only will the CPK actually be created, but with the extended Chopin Lotniss and the port in Modlin. So there was no money on the CPK, but there will be funds for the CPK and 2 additional projects. Why? Oh, that's another thing.
Like a favourite sandbox...
...which is hard to get out of and even harder to get free of. Clearly, she is the 1 who most enjoys playing with Minister Maciej Lasek, who couldn't defy the thought of liquidating this airport. But it is not only an thought – it is simply a necessity, due to the fact that Okęcie cannot grow adequate (not as much as air traffic in Poland can develop), so by all means a fresh airport is needed.
However, Donald Tusk's government decided to have a cookie and eat a cookie. Not only did he announce the construction of a "cut" CPK for 34 million passengers by 2032, he inactive urgently wants to grow Okęta. surely the inhabitants of the confederate districts of Warsaw will be very grateful for this.
After the construction of CPK on Okęcie, drones would land unmanned and God knows what else. The Prime Minister only forgot to mention that the extension of Okęcia is actually an exhibition behind the door of a strategical investor who was expected to put money into a fresh hub airport provided Chopin Airport is closed. The effects of the suspension of the CPK can already be seen – the investor, French Vinci, gets along with the Hungarians who build their CPK.
By the way, the Prime Minister showed how much he did not realize the thought of the hub airport, saying: “I do not think that individual from Krakow, Katowice, Wrocław, Szczecin would dream of driving to Baranów first so that he could fly somewhere. Our large national treasure is the network of modern regional airports." Only, Prime Minister, they service a completely different air traffic. The CPK will not be an airport for low-cost carriers and for transfer traffic. We will not fly from Green Mountain to fresh York or Seoul. And with CPK, I hope so.
And about the fact that CPK is not a threat to regional ports, even the head of the airport in Modlin, Tomasz Szymczak, spoke recently. And this is Modlin, which is... regional airport.
The railway lines will rise...
...and what else! On the “igrek” (lines from Warsaw and Łódź to Poznań and Wrocław) we will drive 300-320 km/h! It just happens to be nothing new. The full "igrek" is designed for 350 km/h, only originally assumed that the trains would first ride fresh tracks at 250 km/h. So Prime Minister Tusk promises us something that would most likely happen in the future, and is based on already established task assumptions.
That's where the better announcements end. The governing organization boasts of its “own” idea, showing on the map the modernizations planned and implemented by PKP PLK, with fresh investments leaving only “igrek”. Where are the another fresh lines? Where's the No. 3 spoke that yet makes Mazury a fast and direct connection to the capital? Where is the fresh line to Rzeszów, which would make it possible to travel from Warsaw to Podkarpacie in little than 3 hours? There was besides no line to Lublin, which could be drawn to Ukraine in the future. There is no real equalization of access to railways in Poland, but it is simply a deepening of the already shrill condition of transport in the east of the country.
The question of how it will actually turn out – in the end, the construction of the CPK is not a fairy tale of moss and ferns, but an investment task enshrined in the Act. Its implementation is covered by schedules, from which the company is settled from time to time. It is possible that we will shortly see fresh versions of railway timetables that will solve the following puzzle – will east Poland see a modern railway?
Donald Tusk said that “in our task railways will not be built again to merge in Baranów.” possibly 1 of the experts or ministers has forgotten to show him a map on which the Prime Minister could easy see that it is not the Barans themselves or the arrival of the railway to the airport, and the planned extension of the Central Railway Station to the north or the proximity of the A2 motorway. This location is defending itself.
The government is having a large time...
...and any voters gotta wipe their eyes with amazement. It's not like they voted for the anti-PiS to be built by this railroad and the airport! After all, megalomania, throwing money away, bullshitting people, moving houses, making Poland the center of the planet unnecessary. And here he comes, the Prime Minister, speaking about Poland as megalopolis, about the most modern airport in Europe and about fast connections between cities.
That's all it was, but otherwise sold. A fewer more chocolates were added to this package of sweets in the form of unnecessary expansion of Okęcie, Modina (maybe they will grub the close Natura 2000 areas to do it?), the slogan “100 minutes”, which is mostly nothing fresh either, and it was packed in a seemingly nicer packaging. Now it remains to see what fickles await us in the expansion of Okęcie, which is surrounded everywhere and is banned from flying at night, as expropriation is powdered and whether something will happen in this lottery in east Poland. want you luck.
