Road Investments at the Halfway Point of the Year

The construction season on the region’s Regional Roads is in full swing. Thanks to record investment exceeding PLN 600 million, we are upgrading additional road sections, building bypasses and safe pedestrian and cycle paths. Some projects have already been completed, while further investments will be opened to traffic this autumn.

“Upgraded roads, new roundabouts, convenient bypasses, cycle paths, and safe, well-lit pedestrian crossings – the results of our efforts are visible across the region. We are successfully making use of external funding, including resources from the European Funds for Kujawy and Pomorze,” said Marshal Piotr Całbecki.

New cycle paths are also being built within the regional road corridors. These projects are being implemented by municipal governments using funding from the European Funds for Kujawy and Pomorze 2021-2027.

Record Investment

More than PLN 2 billion has been allocated to the regional programme for the modernization of Regional Roads over the coming years. Under the European Funds for Kujawy and Pomorze 2021-2027 (FEdKP 2021-2027), €136 million has been earmarked for road infrastructure projects, including the regional bypass construction programme. Additional projects will also be financed through central government funding, amounting to approximately PLN 170 million for bypasses and around PLN 450 million for the expansion of other Regional Roads.
