In the presence of Marshal Piotr Całbecki and President of the Regional Parliament Elżbieta Piniewska, another agreement was signed for the restoration of roadside avenues. Over 400 trees will soon appear along provincial road No. 266, connecting, among others, the Aleksandrów County with the A1 motorway.

 

‘We are restoring green avenues with a view to compensating for the losses to the ecosystem that accompany various investments. We are allocating a total of PLN 18 million for this purpose. Soon, another provincial road will take on a green character,’ says Marshal Piotr Całbecki.

 

We will plant 440 trees along provincial road No. 266 between Ciechocinek and Zakrzew. These will be small-leaved lime trees, common maples, sycamores and black locusts. The Henryk Hinca Nursery in Dobrzyca, Greater Poland, will be responsible for the work. The contract was signed today (4 July) by the contractor’s representative, Marcin Hinca, and the director of the Regional Road Authority in Bydgoszcz, Przemysław Dąbrowski.

 

The scope of the project, worth PLN 1.3 million, includes site preparation, delivery of large seedlings (at a height of 1 m, the trees must have a trunk circumference of at least 20 cm), planting, maintenance (fertilisation and watering) and the construction of retention basins. We will use funds from the European Funds for Kujawy and Pomerania for 2021-27 to carry out the task.

 

Previously, new trees appeared, among others, along provincial road No. 553 Toruń-Wybcz in the Toruń district.

 

We have combined the planting with additional agrotechnical measures related to, among other things, crown formation. Corrective pruning, removal of mistletoe, dry branches and suckers will cover 455 existing trees.

 

Further investments on an important road

 

This year, the regional government has secured funds in the budget for, among other things, the reconstruction of a 2.5-kilometre section of provincial road No. 266 Piotrków Kujawski – Wójcin in the Radziejów district (the tender procedure is ongoing).

 

In Zakrzewo, pedestrian crossings on provincial road No. 252 (Inowrocław – Włocławek) at intersections with provincial road No. 266 will be illuminated (design work is nearing completion).

 

Final work is underway on the design documentation for a new roundabout in Osno (at the junction of the provincial road and the district road to Nieszawa). The design and necessary permits will be available this year, which will then allow us to commission the construction works. The project will be financed using European Funds for Kujawy and Pomerania for 2021-27 (FEdKP 2021-2027).

 

We consistently transfer EU funds at the disposal of the regional government to local governments for cycling infrastructure. In November last year, an agreement was signed for co-financing with FEdKP 2021-2027 funds for the construction of a pedestrian and bicycle path along Szybka Street in Radziejów. The new route will be approximately 1.4 km long.

 

Record spending on roads

 

PLN 2 billion will be allocated to the provincial programme for the modernisation of provincial roads in the coming years. Under the European Funds for Kujawsko-Pomorskie 2021-2027, we are allocating EUR 136 million to road investments, including our regional programme for the construction of ring roads. We will also use the central funding obtained (approximately PLN 170 million for ring roads and approximately PLN 450 million for the expansion of other roads) for some of the tasks related to the expansion of road infrastructure.

 

Currently, the most important road investments carried out on provincial roads include

 

modernisation of provincial road No. 268 from Brzezie to Brześć Kujawski in the Włocławek district

modernisation of provincial road No. 563 Rypin-provincial border in the Rypin district

construction of the Mogilno bypass along provincial road No. 254 in the Mogilno district
