Podkarpacka Kolej Aglomeracyjna

Podkarpacka Kolej Aglomeracyjna (Subcarpathian Agglomeration Railways) is a regional rail operator in the Subcarpathian Voivodeship of Poland. The rail network was established in January 2021, and is still expanding.[1][2]

Franchise(s)Rzeszów, Poland
Main route(s)Rzeszów Główny

The network was established so that regional centres within Subcarpathian Voivodeship can be connected to the capital Rzeszów with all-day two-way frequent services, complementing Polregio services.

Railway lines

There currently are 4 lines, all starting from Rzeszów Główny:[3]

  • Rzeszów - Dębica
  • Rzeszów - Kolbuszowa
  • Rzeszów - Strzyżów nad Wisłokiem
  • Rzeszów - Przeworsk

Future expansion

A 5th line to Rzeszów–Jasionka Airport is planned as well. However, as there currently exists no direct rail link to the airport, construction of a rail link is required for this project.[4] The line will branch off the existing Rzeszów - Kolbuszowa line, north of Zaczernie, and will have two new stations.
