As part of the task, nearly 58 km of railway lines were reconstructed, including Kobierzyce, Sobótka Zachodnia, and Świdnica Przedmieście stations, the passing loop in Bielany Wrocławskie, as well as the following passenger stops: Wrocław Wojszyce, Wrocław Partynice, Domasław, Wierzbice, Pustków Żurawski, Rogów Sobócki, Sobótka, Szczepanów, Marcinowice, and Pszenno. New platforms were constructed at these locations, fully adapted to serve passengers with reduced mobility (PRM). The platforms were equipped with passenger shelters, seating areas, information boards, timetables display cases, and modern lighting. Additionally, in Sobótka and Świdnica Przedmieście, existing wooden shelters of historical value underwent comprehensive renovation.

The project involved the repair or reconstruction of over 100 engineering structures, including 18 bridges and viaducts, and 46 level crossings. Out of these, 22 level crossings classified under Category B or C were secured with automatic level crossing signalling systems and integrated into a remote control system.

Railway traffic safety is ensured by a new hybrid relay-computerised signalling system, utilizing axle counters and semi-automatic block signalling on the line sections. New wired and wireless communication systems were also deployed along the entire section. To accommodate the installation of the new signalling equipment, renovation works were carried out in the control rooms of the Sobótka Zachodnia and Świdnica Przedmieście signal boxes.

A wide scope of power supply and electrical engineering works was executed, including the construction of new grid connections along with power cable lines. These systems supply the new railway signalling automation devices, automatic level crossing signalling, electric point operating and heating systems (EPH), as well as lighting for the platforms, level crossings, and turnouts across stations and passing loops.
