The Polish government has approved construction of the second phase of the ring road around Nowe Miasto Lubawskie.

A deal is expected to be signed at the beginning of next year to complete the 18km road.

Nowe Miasto, a town of about 12,000 inhabitants, is in north central Poland, about 115km southeast of Poland’s principal seaport, Gdansk, on the Baltic coast. Work is scheduled for completion in 2020, according to Polish media.

The contract for the road, to be part of national road number 15, will include access roads and four junctions, with an estimated cost of €92.25 million.

Meanwhile, five funding deals have been signed for eastern road projects worth more than €190 million in total, according to development minister Mateusz Morawiecki.

The projects are a 2.7km stretch of the Olsztyn road, a 6.5km section of the national road DW 669 in Bialystok, extension of the DW 869 from the Jasionka junction of the S19, renovation of 4.1km of the DW 678 in Bialystok and construction of 1.1km of the DW 809 in Lublin.
