Abstract

Introducing competition into the Polish rail market remains one of its most widely discussed topics because the market liberalisation process has not been completely efficient. One may enumerate various reasons for such an outcome. These include: the improper restructuring of the national incumbent rail operator (Polskie Koleje Państwowe), barriers to infrastructure access and insufficient powers of the regulatory authority. The above mentioned issues are discussed throughout the paper. The rail freight market, as a strategic sector for the national economy, is analysed in details.
