Innovative technology for the longitudinal transport and unloading of prefabricated turnouts in blocks

KZN RAIL and KZN Bieżanów are implementing a research and development project entitled:

Innovative technology for the longitudinal transport and unloading of prefabricated turnouts in blocks

The aim of the project is to develop a technology enabling the safe and rapid transport of prefabricated turnouts in blocks and their unloading on single-track railway lines. The expected outcomes of the project include improved safety during the transport and unloading of turnouts, a significant acceleration of turnout transport and, consequently, a reduction in costs, as well as enabling the unloading of turnouts without occupying adjacent tracks.

The total value of the project amounts to PLN 12,423,082.93, of which PLN 5,011,357.85 is co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund.

The project is co-financed by the European Union from the European Regional Development Fund under the Smart Growth Operational Programme 2014–2020. The project is carried out under the competition of the National Centre for Research and Development entitled Fast Track / Competition No. 2/1.1.1/2019.
