The tasks carried out involved the reconstruction of the track systems and infrastructure on the E59 railway line (LK 351) from Choszczno to Stargard. Works were conducted on the main double-track railway line No. 351, from km 140.250 to km 171.120, located in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship, within the districts of Choszczno and Stargard.

The project encompassed the demolition of the existing track superstructure, subgrade works, and the construction of a new track superstructure with a total length of approximately 42.250 km of single track (continuous welded rail (CWR), 60E1 rails on PS94 prestressed concrete sleepers with SB fastening systems). The newly laid track was stabilised by tamping, aligned in plan and profile, and the ballast was cleaned using a ballast cleaner. Additionally, two railway stations (Dolice and Kolin) and four stops (Ziemomyśl, Morzyca, Strzebielewo, and Witkowo) were reconstructed, alongside the installation of new turnouts. The scope of work also included the removal of existing platforms and the construction of 11 new single-edge platforms and 1 island platform, complete with street furniture and full accessibility for passengers with reduced mobility (PRM). Furthermore, the works involved the modernisation of 9 level crossings, the resurfacing of access roads, the upgrade and construction of 19 railway bridges and viaducts, as well as 25 culverts, alongside comprehensive drainage systems for the platforms, track networks, and road infrastructure.

The successful implementation of the project aimed to enhance travel comfort for passengers, reduce travel times (by increasing the maximum speed for passenger trains to 160 km/h), boost the competitiveness of rail transport over road transport, improve safety at level crossings, and eliminate barriers for persons with reduced mobility.
