HISTORY

The PKP Branch of Mechanised Roadworks in Kraków was established in October 1954 as a unit within the structures of the Kraków (later Southern), Regional Directorate of State Railways.

The Branch repaired tracks and subgrade, and later also turnouts, using high-performance equipment and machines produced both in Poland and by reputable foreign manufacturers: Matisa of Switzerland and Plasser & Theurer of Austria.

Already in the 1970s, the then DOM included three Mechanised Track Superstructure Works Trains, an Assembly and Disassembly Base in Dębica and a Machine and Equipment Base in Kraków.

As of 1 April 1996, Dębica became the company’s registered office. As a result of the ongoing reorganisation of PKP, the Infrastructure Repair Plant in Dębica was established on 1 July 1998 and comprised the following executive units:

• Mechanised Track Superstructure Works Section, based in Tarnów;
• Mechanised Maintenance Works Section, based in Dębica;
• Mechanised Turnout Works Section, based in Dębica;
• Track Superstructure Base in Dębica;
• Machine and Equipment Base in Kraków.

On 1 October 1974, the PKP Branch of Mechanised Roadworks in Sucha Beskidzka was established. Its main task was to carry out major repairs of engineering structures and subgrade. Three executive units operated within the Branch, namely the management units for major repairs of engineering structures and subgrade in Sucha Beskidzka, Tarnów and Rzeszów. In addition, a Machine and Equipment Base was established in Sucha Beskidzka in 1976.

As of 1 April 1984, the Branch was transformed into the Branch of Mechanised Engineering and Subgrade Works. The number of executive units increased, and three Mechanised Engineering Works Trains were established in Bochnia, Przeworsk and Sucha Beskidzka, along with three Mechanised Subgrade Works Trains in Tarnów, Kraków and Łańcut, and a Mechanised Machine and Equipment Repair Train in Sucha Beskidzka.

As a result of organisational changes in the PKP road service, the Bridge Branch based in Sucha Beskidzka was established on 1 January 1995. Its core task was to administer railway engineering structures and maintain them in continuous technical working order.

To carry out the tasks set out in the framework Organisational Regulations of the Bridge Branch, six Engineering Structure Maintenance Sections were established across the area of the Southern Regional Directorate of State Railways in Sucha Beskidzka, Bochnia, Kraków-Prokocim, Przeworsk, Zagórze and Nowy Sącz. In addition, the Mechanised Engineering Structure Maintenance Section in Sucha Beskidzka and the Engineering Structure Diagnostics and Supervision Section in Kraków-Prokocim were established.

As a result of further PKP reorganisation, the Bridge Branch was transformed into the Bridge Plant based in Sucha Beskidzka on 1 July 1998. On 1 October 2001, PKP S.A. Infrastructure Repair Plant in Dębica and PKP S.A. Bridge Plant in Sucha Beskidzka merged into one company, Przedsiębiorstwo Napraw i Utrzymania Infrastruktury Kolejowej w Krakowie sp. z o.o., with its registered office in Kraków.
