The Solidarity Transport Hub or Central Communication Port (Polish: Centralny Port Komunikacyjny, CPK), 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 (25 mi) southwest of Warsaw, as well as a new nationwide high-speed rail and controlled-access highway network linking the CPK to much of the rest of the country. The opening of the CPK airport would not mean that Warsaw Chopin Airport would be closed; no official decision has yet been made. The English name "Solidarity Transport Hub Poland" is proposed for the project by its website.The planned launch of the port is 2028. At first the airport is to have two runways (4,000 m × 45 m), but eventually four. The combined airport and train station is planned to serve 40 million passengers per year - around the scale of Berlin Brandenburg Airport - with the long-term goal of about 100 million passengers per year. 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. The construction of a high-speed train to Frankfurt (Oder) is also planned, which is to shorten the travel time on the Berlin - CPK route to under 3.5 hours.
After the 2023 Polish parliamentary election, the winning coalition of the three opposition parties aiming to form the new government pledged to re-examine the plans for the airport.
