Polish municipal public transport fleet updates

Overview

Polish municipalities are managing the transition of their public transport fleets through the sale of decommissioned vehicles and the procurement of modern alternatives.

Local governments have initiated auctions to sell older models, such as a 2005 Autosan Tramp in Majdan Królewski and Solaris buses in Kielce. In Kielce, authorities reduced starting prices by 25 percent following unsuccessful auction attempts to encourage buyers. Some decommissioned vehicles from Kielce have been acquired by the Sikorka Foundation in Ukraine to support the city of Vinnytsia.

Simultaneously, significant investments are being made to modernize fleets with more efficient technology. MPK Lublin has integrated nine new hybrid buses, while the Upper Silesian-Zagłębie Metropolis has completed the delivery of 73 electric buses and 45 chargers. This regional modernization, valued at nearly 305 million PLN and supported by the National Recovery Plan, aims to reduce local emissions.
