The construction of the Opatów bypass has begun
On March 16, 2023, the shovel was officially dug in for the construction of the Opatów bypass. The contract for the design and construction of the road is being performed by a consortium of Mostostal Warszawa and Acciona.
The symbolic groundbreaking ceremony was attended by, among others, Rafał Weber - Secretary of State in the Ministry of Infrastructure and Krzysztof Strzelczyk - Director of the General Directorate for National Roads and Motorways in Kielce, as well as parliamentarians from the region and representatives of the local government.
The Opatów ring road will run through the communes of Opatów, Lipnik and Sadowie. The new road will free the city from transit traffic, improve the quality of life of the residents as well as the safety and comfort of travellers.
The bypass will be an important section of the planned S74 expressway, which will connect the Łódź, Świętokrzyskie and Podkarpackie voivodships in the future. This is another task that Mostostal Warszawa is carrying out in this region.
-The groundbreaking marks the symbolic commencement of work on the construction of this key section of the DK9 and S74 roads for the Opatów district and the DK74 connector. This is an important investment that will improve the safety and quality of life of residents who have been waiting for a bypass for a long time. The investment has a significant transport justification - says Krzysztof Żmijan, Contract Director. - We have experienced staff, the best engineers and the potential to carry out any, even the most difficult task efficiently and on time. Today's groundbreaking, after the planned ZRID decision, is proof of this. We are starting work, which will be carried out at the highest level and in the best agreement with the ordering party.
