S19 Rzeszów Południe-Babica: Important Viaduct Opened to Traffic
As part of the construction of the S19 Rzeszów Południe–Babica expressway, Mostostal Warszawa has completed a railway viaduct in Babica, which is now open to drivers. The new structure, along with a connecting road, facilitates smoother traffic flow between Rzeszów-Strzyżów and Rzeszów-Domaradz.
- We collaborate with local communities at every stage of the project. We are pleased that our work contributes to improving residents quality of life by reducing traffic disruptions and enhancing safety on this important road corridor - said Artur Salachna, Acting Director of the S19 Construction Contract.
Support for Drivers
Opening the viaduct resolves traffic congestion near the former railway crossing, where local, transit, and tourist traffic converged. The new infrastructure significantly improves road capacity.
The viaduct is a key element of the Babica junction, allowing traffic to pass over the Rzeszów Główny–Jasło railway line and technological lanes without interference. Until the adjacent roundabouts are completed, pedestrian traffic will continue under current arrangements.
Project Implementation
The S19 section is being built by a consortium of Mostostal Warszawa and Acciona Construcción. The entire section spans 10.3 km, with a contract value of PLN 2.2 billion. Work began in April 2022.
