The paper presents an adaptive approach to project management, illustrated by the description of a case study, i.e., of a project whose aim was to develop the means and prepare the documentation for the revitalization of a railway line. The project itself was a major challenge for the implementers due to a novel and innovative subject thereof, including the construction of a railway line which takes place in a difficult terrain and within the constraints of urban planning. Because of the situation, among other things, or the number of unknowns regarding the result of the project and the principles of its operation, adaptive approach was used to obtain proper results. This approach is mainly applied in IT environments, but the current project attempts to utilize the same principles to an infrastructure project. The paper characterizes the adaptive approach and based on the use thereof, illustrates the preparation of project documentation for the construction of an urban railway line.
