Kolín Prides Itself with a New Passenger Building

SŽDC launched construction works last autumn. During their implementation, the passenger building underwent complex modernization. Workers carried out external and internal surface adaptations, an exchange of doors and windows, the orientation system, heating air conditioning and the information system. Passengers as well as transport employees will also appreciate complete repairs of internal premises including the cash desks, the hall, new lavatories and space for daily press sale, refreshments with an offer of other services. Some premises offer also sitting places with a view of the complete station hall and thus more pleasant waiting for train connections.

”Kolín railway station is the most frequented one in Central Bohemia; 19,000 passengers pass through per day. After the construction of a new bus terminal, it also serves as an important transfer junction. That is why I am glad that we completed one of the more extensive passenger building reconstructions precisely here. The project included a preservation of many historical components reminding the station’s rich history. We will proceed in this way while renovating more station buildings as well“, said Mr. Jiří Svoboda, Director General of SŽDC.

The administration building also acquired a new modern shape. At the same time, the pavement, fences, roofing for bikes rental/depository and for containers were repaired. The total sum of works equals CZK 76 million.
