News / Y Shaped high speed rail line Poland [78]

And spending tens of billions on a project 15% of population would have access to and 0.15% would use frequently

Perhaps they don't use it at the moment because it's so bad. People fly to Gdańsk, Szczeciń, Wrocław from Warsaw or get stuck in traffic jams precisely because the rail link is such a mess.

Anyway, I see packed trains all the time so somebody must find it useful.

Therefore an "expat" teacher knows better

He probably doe know better - a fresh point of view and all that.

They'll only do it if Europe pays - and they've already paid billions of pln to upgrade some lines. It seems it's in the interest of some of the PiSowsko-SLDowski mafia to keep death on the roads.

Life / Please recommend - shopping in Warsaw [30]

upmarket shops aren't really my scene, but thanks. It will be interesting to see how much Warsaw has changed since I was last there :)

The weird thing is that it cost a fortune, doesn't have any market and belongs to one person not a consortium. When were you last in Warsaw.

Life / Please recommend - shopping in Warsaw [30]

Has something been demolished to make way for it? I've not been in Warsaw for a couple of years, so I'm curious ;)

It was a vacant lot with a small pavillion shop on part of it. My neighbors kicked up a stink about losing light but they built anyway Try Panorama for shopping. It got a lot better than before.
