New Roads and Railroads
Over 250 kilometres of high-speed routes are expected to be put into service in 2023. The railroads have also announced completion of works on several important modernized routes, although not all of them will achieve the expected travel times
DGP has learned about the plans of the road and railroad authorities with regard to investments that are to be completed in 2023. In the case of high-speed roads, one can expect a decent result, as about 70 km of highways and almost 200 km of expressways are to be put into service. This is admittedly considerably less than in the record-breaking year 2012, when more than 570 km of roads were made available to drivers, but at the same time better than in the paltry years 2015, 2016 and 2020, when the length of new high-speed thoroughfares being put into service ranged between 51 and 124 km.
One of the most important events next year will be the closing of the ring road around Łódź, which will be made possible by the opening of a 14-kilometre section of the S14 route between Aleksandrów Łódzki and the Słowik junction at the A2 highway. According to plans, drivers can expect to use it starting next spring. Thus, Łódź will be the first major city in Poland to have a complete ring road. Warsaw, for example, is still awaiting its own, as the construction of the eastern part of the ring road remains blocked after protests.
