Deputies demand government clarify pricing of A1 road construction contract

Yesterday Deputy Infrastructure Minister Jan Kurylczyk and the president of Autostrada Wielkopolska company Andrzej Patalas signed a protocol completing the negotiations, which states that the total cost of the 104.5 kilometre stretch between Nowy Tomyśl to Świecko will amount to EUR 637 million, which is the same figure that AW proposed at the beginning of negotiations back in April. The price infuriated the road construction sector and many Sejm deputies. The head of the Sejm Infrastructure Commission Janusz Piechociński declared that he will demand that the government clarify how this price was reached and accepted.
