en.Wedoany.com Reported - On April 10, the Polish Port Polska airport project (formerly known as the Central Communication Port) announced the selection of Budimex as the preferred contractor for the deep foundation works of the passenger terminal. The tender for the piling works was launched last December, with Budimex emerging as the winning bidder among six budget-compliant submissions with its lowest offer of approximately PLN 146 million (around £30 million). The two parties are expected to formally sign the contract in June this year, followed by the commencement of on-site construction.

The core scope of this foundation works package is the reinforcement of the terminal's foundation. Construction tasks include installing over 8,194 piles and columns, each ranging in length from 9 to 30 meters, resulting in a cumulative total reinforcement length exceeding 140 kilometers. Additionally, the contractor is responsible for constructing intermediate foundations to support the subsequent structural work of the passenger terminal. All piling works for this package are scheduled for completion by the end of 2027, with final acceptance expected in early 2028.

Located between Warsaw and Łódź, the Port Polska airport is planned to have an annual capacity of 40 million passengers, with an overall estimated investment of PLN 131 billion. In addition to civil aviation facilities, the project also includes a high-speed rail hub connecting major Polish cities with other European countries. The airport's design is the responsibility of a consortium of Foster + Partners and Buro Happold, with the main phases of the project expected to be completed by 2032.
