Poland has invited tenders for construction of a 5km stretch of the S19 Via Carpathia between Dobrzyniew and Bialystok Zachod junction in Podlasie province.

Bids must be submitted by April 14 for work to start in 2022 with completion in 2024.

The S19, as well as the S61, in Poland constitute part of the trans-European route Via Carpathia, of which many sections are either under conastruction or in the planning stages. It will eventually connect Klaipėda in Lithuania with Thessaloniki in Greece.

Poland’s Expressway S19 will run from the border crossing to Belarus in Kuźnica through Białystok, Lublin and Rzeszów to the border with Slovakia at Barwinek, where it will connect with Slovakia’s future R4 Expressway.
