Station of the Year 2024 competition

organizer: ProKolej Foundation

The 7th edition of the competition for the best railway station in Poland is underway! Its purpose is to promote good standards of passenger service and station infrastructure. {More}

purpose

The purpose of the competition, as we read in the regulations, is to recognize the best railroad stations in Poland. It serves not only to promote modern and functional public facilities, but also to promote rail transportation and collect and promote good practices in serving travelers.

terms and conditions

The competition is open to both legal entities and individuals. Active facilities and those serving regular passenger traffic may be submitted. Applications and evaluations of stations may take into account the surroundings in the form of railroad infrastructure serving travelers (access, underground and overground passages, platforms, passenger information systems) and the connection of the object with the environment (stops, parking lots, elements of small architecture). Excluded from the competition are facilities that have won the Grand Prize or the Audience Award in the last five years.

Participation in the competition is free of charge.

course of the competition

Entries are made by filling out the form posted on the competition website. From among the submitted entries, the organizer will select at least twenty sites to be evaluated and audited. As the organizers emphasize, in determining the list of audited stations, priority will be given to facilities that have not participated in previous editions of the competition, followed by those that have been audited only once so far.

Upon completion of the audits and evaluation, five to ten facilities will be selected as nominees for the title "Station of the Year 2024." These facilities will be evaluated by a jury and participate in an online vote for the Audience Award.
