The European Investment Bank (EIB) is to provide Poland with credits worth euro 80 million to be spent on the modernization of a 91-kilometer section of the A-4 highway from Wroclaw to Krzywa. This is the fourth phase of the project, for which funding has been provided not only by the EIB, but also from European Union (EU) aid funds and to a lesser extent the State Treasury. The total cost of the fourth phase of the modernization will amount to euro 305 million. The EIB plans to provide Poland with loans totalling euro 650 million for investment in the country's roads. Of that sum, euro 150 million will go into the modernization of damaged sections of national highways. The Polish government is to provide an additional euro 250 million.
