Abstract
The study concerns the application of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in the process of railway infrastructure upgrading. The research site was railway line no. 218 Prabuty-Kwidzyn (Poland). The main aim was to verify integration of BIM tools, particularly Open Rail Designer, to enhance the geometric complexity and operational effi ciency of railway projects. The methodology included: terrain data acquisition, reconstruction of the existing state, preparation of new project documentation. Upgrading was based on redesigning track alignments, introducing dual tracks, and achieving a target maximum speed of 160 kph, thereby improving both technical and operational parameters. The fi ndings show BIM's potential for interdisciplinary collaboration. Future work suggests integrating train movement simula tions to improve the evaluation of modernization benefi ts.
