Projects responding to the needs of users and the economy<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

 <\/p>

The awarded investments show the wide range of Budimex competences<\/span>. The modernization of the Warszawa Zachodnia Station was one of the largest and most complex railway projects carried out in Poland. The works covered nearly five kilometers of stations, 35 kilometers of tracks, 137 turnouts and 40 kilometers of overhead contact line. The works were carried out with maintained railway traffic, covering an average of over 800 trains per day. \u200e<\/p>

 <\/p>

– The modernization of the Warszawa Zachodnia Station was one of the most complex railway projects carried out in Poland<\/em><\/span>. The key challenge was to carry out multi-discipline works while maintaining the continuity of traffic of an average of over 800 trains per day. This required precise staging of works, close coordination of track, traction, construction, installation and railway traffic control works, as well as constant cooperation of all participants involved in the implementation of this modernization. The awards received confirm the quality of the adopted solutions and the high competence of the teams that successfully implemented this extremely demanding project. The result is a modern, accessible and integrated transport hub, which significantly increases the comfort of passenger service, improves rail traffic and strengthens the role of Warsaw West in the national transport system. I would like to thank the Investor, PKP Polskie Linie Kolejowe S.A., for their partnership and all the teams for their commitment to this strategic undertaking,” says Piotr Wawrzycki, Director of the Northern Branch of the Railway and Electric Power Construction Division at Budimex SA.<\/p>

 <\/p>

One of the most spectacular final projects was the T3 Baltic Hub Container Terminal<\/span>. The investment included the creation of a new, 36-hectare water-based terminal area, the construction of a deep-water quay 717 meters long and 17.5 meters deep, and the execution of extensive hydrotechnical works. The terminal increases the annual handling capacity of the Baltic Hub by 1.5 million TEUs, to a total of 4.5 million TEUs. The project was carried out by a consortium of Budimex and DEME DREDGING, with DEME being responsible for dredging and refulcation works.<\/p>

 <\/p>

 <\/p>

– The T3 Baltic Hub Terminal is an investment of strategic importance for the Polish economy and the position of the Port of Gdansk on the logistics map of Europe<\/em><\/span>. The implementation of the terminal required a combination of advanced hydrotechnical knowledge, precise management and the experience of teams working in a demanding marine environment. The award is a confirmation of the high quality of workmanship and effective cooperation of all project participants. I would like to thank the investor, Baltic Hub, our syndicated partner, DEME DREDGING and the entire team, whose professionalism allowed us to implement one of the largest port projects in the Baltic Sea region,” says Piotr Sumi\u0142a, Contract Director at Budimex SA.<\/p>

 <\/p>

The final projects also included projects combining modern solutions with the protection of heritage and existing architecture<\/span>. The modernization of the Rzesz\u00f3w G\u0142\u00f3wny Railway Station was carried out in a building under conservation protection, and its aim was to reconcile the historical identity of the building with modern functional and technical requirements. In turn, the reconstruction of the building of the Maritime Border Guard Branch in Gda\u0144sk included, among other things, solutions improving usable, technical and fire protection parameters while maintaining the existing architectural form. \u200e<\/p>

 <\/p>

The modernization of the “Spodek” created a modern seat of the Podlaskie Institute of Culture, while the Eastern Innovative Center of Architecture of the Lublin University of Technology combined didactic, scientific and architectural functions<\/span>. The WICA building itself is a tool for practical education of future architects, among other things, thanks to the conscious exposure of structural, material and installation solutions. \u200e<\/p>

 <\/p>

The Berdychowskie Bridges in Pozna\u0144 and the S7 Modlin\u2013Czosn\u00f3w section represent investments improving the accessibility and efficiency of the transport system<\/span>. The first of the projects created a new pedestrian and bicycle connection between important parts of Pozna\u0144, the second is an important element of the route connecting Warsaw with the north of the country. \u200e<\/p>

 <\/p>

Competition promoting the quality of Polish construction<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

The “Modernization of the Year & Construction of the 21st Century” competition promotes projects that stand out, among others, by the level of architectural and urban solutions, functionality, modernity of technology, quality of workmanship, ecological effects and accessibility for people with disabilities<\/span>. In the case of historical buildings, the preservation of their architecture and the protection of cultural heritage are also assessed.<\/p>

 <\/p>

Jubilee, 30<\/span>. the edition of the competition is under the patronage of the Minister of Infrastructure, the Ministry of Climate and Environment, the Minister of National Defence and the Ministry of Development and Technology. The event was also supported by numerous public institutions, local governments, technical universities and industry organizations. \u200e<\/p>

 <\/p>

The presence of eight Budimex projects in the jubilee finale confirms the diversity of the company’s competences and ability to carry out complex projects in many segments of the construction market<\/span>. The common denominator of all investments remains the quality of workmanship, safety, responsibility towards the environment and real value created for users.<\/p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section> \n
