The Hungarian Ministry of Innovation and Technology has ordered to prepare a feasibility study for creating a high-speed railway connecting Budapest and Warsaw. The railway line would also connect the other V4 countries – Slovakia and Czechia. The Hungarian section of this highspeed rail connection would run from Budapest via Mór to Gyor. The rest of the planned route would go through Dunajska Streda and Bratislava in Slovakia, and then through Brno and Ostrava in Czechia, and finally Katowice to Warsaw in Poland. According to plans the new route should operate trains reaching the speed of 350km per hour. This investment would make it possible to travel from Warsaw to Budapest in just under 5,5 hours, instead of the current 12.
