A new tender has been offered for the construction of the Debica-Tarnow section of the A4 motorway in southern Poland.

The 3519 Polish General Directorate for National Roads and Motorways (GDDKiA) decided to call a new tender after deciding not to continue working with the consortium of 3206 Hydrobudowa, 6461 SIAC Construction, PBG, and 6462 Aprivia.

GDDKiA are reported to have sought a fresh tender due to perceived delays in work on the Debica-Tarnow section. SIAC is said to be prepared to complete the investment, provided GDDKiA pays it €165.33 million (PLN 675mn).

Earmarked to stretch 670km from the Polish-German border in Zgorzelec, through Wrocław, Katowice, Kraków, Tarnów, and Rzeszów, to the Polish-Ukrainian border at Korczowa, the A4 is due for completion in 2013.
