Still a vast amount of work to go, and no, Ian Wilcock, I do not see any chance of this being open to traffic this year! I'd guess that within a few months it will be possible to cross on foot (during a public holiday of course) but all the ancillary work (on-ramps, stairs, wheelchair lifts, acoustic screens, crash barriers, signage, lighting) will go on an on. And the final sign-offs before cars are allowed over it. Second half of next year, I'd say would be optimistic.
It's around twenty past seven; the passenger train to Skarzysko-Kamienna has just left, and a full coal train, electric hauled, passes W-wa Jeziorki station on the 'up' line heading for the sidings at Okęcie.
I must also mark today the passing of the great theoretical physicist, Steven Hawking. I shall celebrate his life in a post about his best seller, A Brief History of Time, as soon as I can. His admonition to us all to be curious and never to give up in the face of adversity is so important.
UPDATE 16.03.2018 - a wider view - in a snowstorm. All three tracks now spanned.
