Polish road projects commencing shortly

Two major road projects are planned for Poland. Spanish construction firm Dragados intends to start work building a 25km ring road around the Polish city of Radom in the second half of 2016. The road will cost over €171.67 million to construct and will be completed in 2018. The work includes building four bridges, four junctions and two pedestrian bridges. The new ring road will form a part of the S7 road and reduce journey time between Krakow, Kielce and Warsaw.

Meanwhile in Rybnik the local authorities are looking to a loan to finance work on a regional road connecting Raciborz and Pszczyna. The aim is to source funding from the European Investment Bank (EIB) and the project has an estimated cost of €109.27 million. The work would form part of an EU project to improve road links in Poland. The work is needed to upgrade the existing road between Raciborz and Pszczyna as well as to build a new 60km section. Should funding be secured, the improved road connection and additional link would be ready for traffic by 2020.
