context_page_description: The Solidarity Transport Hub or Central Communication/Transport Port is a megaproject of the Government of Poland aimed at the construction of a new, built-from-scratch airport to be located approximately 40 kilometres southwest of Warsaw, which is planned to replace Warsaw Chopin Airport, which is slowly starting to get surrounded by urban areas. The English name "Solidarity Transport Hub Poland" is proposed for the project by its website.
  The planned launch of the port is 2027. At first the airport is to have two runways, but ultimately four. The port will initially have a capacity of 40 million passengers per year, and ultimately 100 million passengers. Planned train connections will take 15 minutes to Warsaw Central railway station, 25 minutes to Łódź Fabryczna railway station, and 2 hours to most other major Polish cities, such as Kraków, Wrocław, Poznań and Gdańsk.
context_section_description: The airport's planned site is about 40km west of Warsaw, next to the village Stanisławów which is part of Gmina Baranów in Grodzisk Mazowiecki County. The Baranow commune occupies a significant part of the Grodzisk County and, despite its rural character, has an extensive road infrastructure. The A2 autostrada and railway lines run in the immediate vicinity of the potential construction site, and Wrocław (Expressway S8) and Poznań (national road No. 92) is nearby.
  The choice of the location was made after a number of areas were examined. Before recommending Baranów, the Arup consulting company analyzed a list of potential locations, including: Modlin, Wołomin, Sochaczew, Mszczonów, Babsk, Nowe Miasto nad Pilicą, Grójec and Radom-Sadków. Experts took into account the distance from Warsaw, transport accessibility, land accessibility and environmental restrictions, including noise levels. Analyses showed that Baranów offers an optimal location for the project.
