Deputy Minister Chodkiewicz: Plan for large bypass, so-called ‘Warsaw Ring’

Deputy Minister of Infrastructure Marek Chodkiewicz has announced plans for a large Warsaw bypass, the so-called "Warsaw ring," to be built 30-50 kilometers from the city. The road is to incorporate the existing No. 50 national road which runs through the southern part of the Mazowieckie voivodship. "From the south, the national road No. 50 can be used to build the ring, and from the north, the planned section of the S10 expressway will be included," said Deputy Minister Chodkiewicz. "At the Ministry of Infrastructure, work related to the large Warsaw ringroad is underway," said Chodkiewicz. "We are at a very early stage, for now we are planning to start preparatory work for the construction,” he added. The S10 expressway will ultimately connect Warsaw with Szczecin and create an important axis of road transport between Bydgoszcz and Toruń. This road will also be an alternative to the A-2 motorway for international traffic.
