Government to rework road construction program by March

The Ministry of Infrastructure and Development is aiming to amend the government's road construction program by the end of March, Vice-Minister Jerzy Szmit announced on Friday. The current program, created by the previous PO-led government, sets out the strategy for the building of national roads until 2023. Szmit noted that the program calls for almost PLN 200 billion in expenses, but only PLN 107 billion has been set aside for it, prompting the new government to analyze the program in order to determine whether certain changes may need to be made. The vice-minister emphasized that his team will do everything in their power to implement as much of the current program as possible.
