Since 1990 loans worth a total of €10 billion have been granted by the EIB for Polish road projects, with some 20% of the loans going to private companies.

During 2010, the EIB will be lending some €2.79 billion for Polish road projects.

To date, private motorway concession-holders have built 240km of highways, and at present are carrying out works on 170km.

Funds for the development of transport infrastructure in Poland are also of interest to the 1166 European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), which is keen to develop Poland’s public-private partnership (PPP) projects.
