Great imagery on Polish International Airport & Rail Terimus. Very exciting to see such a project. I do hope it takes off! Please excuse my play on words!
I don’t see barriers between the train and the platform. Is that going to be the case? Apart from the risk of people falling on the tracks and getting killed, there is the effect it could have on travel. If someone were to fall in, an investigation could cause severe problems for travelers.
Of course, other airports suffers the same problem, but since this is a greenfield project, I might expect barriers to be put in place. Consider the Elizabeth line at Heathrow.
Anyway, very cool project and arguably necessary to cement Polish economic prosperity and political and national security. Also great for the entire CEE region as it would become their own major transport hub. Without a major hub, a region is effectively demoted to peripheral status, and the last thing Poland and the CEE need is to operate as the periphery of Germany and Russia instead of as a region in its own right, which it is and always has been in essence, if not always in practical terms.
