Work has started on the 18.5km southern ring road around the Polish capital Warsaw.

The €1.54 billion project runs between Pulawska and Lubelska and should be finished by mid 2020, said Andrzej Adamczyk, Poland’s construction and infrastructure minister.

A consortium formed by the Polish Przedsiebiorstwo Budowy Drog i Mostow (PBDiM) and the Turkish Gulermak is completing the work.

Meanwhile, a stretch of the S7 dual carriageway between Nidzica and Napierki was recently opened. The €118.8 million project involved two sections of road, with 945 Strabag the contractor for the first part and Strabag Infrastruktura Poludnie for the second.

Part of the new road forms a bypass for the town of Nidzica.

Another Polish city, Tychy in Upper Silesia, said it will borrow just over €37 million from the 1054 European Investment Bank as part of the Upper Silesia urban framework programme.

Under the programme, the EIB is to provide financing to support infrastructure development, including roads, in the region.
