Správa železnic Renovated More than 70 Station Buildings Last Year

Modern passenger check-in areas, barrier-free accesses and new technical facilities. These are not the only benefits that more station buildings across the country can boast now. Správa železnic has completely reconstructed 73 of such premises in 2021. The financial costs spent on construction and maintenance will exceed CZK 2 billion.

Správa železnic reports completion for example from Milevsko, Havířov, Hanušovice, Protivín, Strakonice, Pačejov, Žihle, Sušice, Kolinec, Nýrsko, Blovice, Horažďovice, Hrušovany nad Jevišovkou-Šanov, Dětřichov nad Bystřicí, Louny, Křižanov, Třebíč, Sklené nad Oslavou, Kadaň, Mnichovo Hradiště, Ivanovice na Hané, Ostrov nad Ohří, Kunčice pod Ondřejníkem, Holice, Šumperk, Kroměříž, Praha-Zahradní Město, Lhotka nad Bečvou, Litvínov, Krnov-Cvilín or Skrochovice.

Several major renovations of listed station buildings are also nearing completion. “We will finish laying the handmade flooring inside the building of the railway station in Hradec Králové in February, construction works are also at the final stage in the case of the station building reconstruction in Beroun, we want to be done during the summer holidays,” describes the Director General of Správa železnic Jiří Svoboda and adds: “The reconstruction of the České Budějovice railway station is also moving forward significantly, where the renovated departure hall will be opened to passengers by the end of the year.”

Furthermore, in 2022, work will continue on listed buildings in Pilsen and Pardubice, where the first phase of construction concerns the high-rise building Sirius. The builders will also continue renovating the interior of the Fanta's building at the Prague Main Station. Another important project that Správa železnic expects to start this year is the reconstruction of the historic building at the station in Teplice v Čechách. In the first stage, the builders will focus on repairing the facade and the adjacent 1st platform.

Completely new buildings will be erected in some stations. New facilities will be available to passengers in Praha-Radotín, where the construction of a new single-storey structure will be ready to commence in 2022. In Vsetín, a new terminal for train and bus transport will replace the current station building, and at the same time, the track facility will be overhauled. Moreover, a new check-in hall is growing in Praha-Vysočany as part of the modernisation of the entire station and the adjacent section to Mstětice.

More projects on station buildings will be prepared for implementation this year in Střelice, Nové Město pod Smrkem, Adamov, Tlumačov, Kdyně, Kostelec u Jihlavy, Rybniště, Hostinné, Blatná u Jesenice, Čejetice or Podivín as well. Projects will also take place in Bohumín, Tachov, Opava West, Prachatice, Velim, Veselí nad Lužnicí, Nová Paka, Velvary, Libina, Studénka, Balkova Lhota or Třinec.
