I Thought we travel on the train from Krakow to a few other cities, the train is a normally a great way to see a country, but for some reason someone put up these fences, and you can’t see anything. Who’s idea was that? And how much were they paid?
Pull down the wall.
Other than that you have a really beautiful country, though I would have liked to have seen it from the train too
Many of these isolations, even on highway are isolating grass fields plus they are ugly. I live next to train rails for 10 years (~50 meters from tracks) and they installed these walls. They are just ugly and ruining landscape. Maybe if they could be made from wood like in Austria, they it would be better. I just traveled by car from Italy and we have ugly roads.
Barriers for noise, there’s a lot of houses near tracks for some reason
Sound stoppers, near my town they are see through with black birds painted on them but near forests I seen them in a mix of three colors green, yellow and orange
Why what?
Noise reduction is why
“Because f**k you, that’s why!”
to not bother houses and animals that were there first before they decided to build a highway trough their backyard
these were made specifically just to fuck with you
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Some people mentioned sound isolation but it’s also for privacy
Took me a while to realise it’s not about the wall on the border with Belarus
Oof I’m getting roasted on this thread, I get the sound reduction thing, it’s just a real shame that my trips out of the cities were ruined by the metal fencing I wanted to see some of the beautiful countryside without having to drive, I guess I just won’t travel by train in Poland anymore. Maybe I’m spoilt by the uninterrupted scenery usually found on the railways in the UK.
In most cases, there are houses, literally, next to the track or motorway. There are some unfortunate exceptions.
Noise
Gotta hide them biolabs we got from Ukraine for safekeeping.
Privacy protection
Żeby chuja było widać
As much as I love trains, if I was living next to the tracks I’d rather see this then another lovely EU07 waking me up at three am.
You never seen noise barriers before? Lmao
Sound stoppers, idk why but houses are often next to large motorways
My grandfather’s village is literally on a motorway
Trains are ment to go from A to B, not to satisfy your vision.
Birds mostly. The plastic ones usually ended up with birds breaking their heads against them since they cant really see them when flying, stickers are helping but not much and since its easier to make these than clean the bodies and getting all corpse esters on the road, not to mention smell.
sound and idiot barrier.
The truth is… A friend of high-level politician started a new business. His business is production of noise reduction walls. So they are putting this shit in the middle of nowhere
żebyś sie głupio pytał
Noise barrier
Behind that fence people want a little bit of quiet for a change
noise barriers but many times places in areas where there is no need for that
If my neighbors were Belarus and Russia I’d want a 50 foot wall along my border
