Hungary is undertaking various railway infrastructure modernization efforts through the Ministry of Transport and Investment and the national railway operator, MÁV.

In Debrecen, a feasibility study has been commissioned to renovate the Debrecen Main Station. The project, part of the Baross Gábor Railway Development Plan, aims to transform the station into a modern transportation hub by integrating rail, tram, and bus services, while exploring connections to the airport and new economic zones.

Simultaneously, MÁV is implementing a nationwide station renovation program. In the Balaton region, investments totaling approximately 881 million HUF are being used to upgrade stations such as Balatonlelle and Balatonboglár with contemporary facilities, solar panels, and climate control. In eastern Hungary, the renovation of the Felsőzsolca station has been completed, featuring updated facades, improved accessibility, and new security systems.
