Gov't considers public-private funds to construct express roads
The government is considering the construction of express roads with the use of private funds and there are already analysis under way to determine which stretches could be constructed as part of public-private partnership (PPP), according to Rzeczpospolita sources.
"I wish this will happens. This system can be used not only for highways. I believe that it is important that the supporter of PPP is also the Finance Minister," said Cezary Grabarczyk, Infrastructure Minister. Most likely this will concern the most crowded stretches, such as S8 and S5. "Firstly one must arrange all issues regarding highway projects. I would warn against touching express roads, as the government has funds for constructing them and has to use them," said Jerzy Polaczek, former Infrastructure Minister.
