Resurfacing at the Poznań Zachód Interchange

On 6 August 2023, phase one of the resurfacing process will begin at the Poznań Zachód interchange at the intersection of the A2 motorway and the S5 and S11 expressways. The entry roads onto the motorway will be closed for traffic as part of the process. Drivers will have to take detours, according to the approved temporary traffic organization plan. Drivers are requested to take caution and abide by the traffic organization signage.

Autostrada Wielkopolska SA, in line with the long term investment and rehabilitation program commences the pavement rehabilitation at the Poznań Zachód interchange. The works will involve replacing the wearing course and have been divided into phases, so as to be the least disruptive to motorists and allow some traffic to pass through the interchange. Phase one – rehabilitation of the entry slip roads – will begin on August 6. Preparatory works around the 156 km of A2 will begin on August 2.

• For drivers coming from Wrocław (S5 expressway) and intending to enter the motorway in the direction of Warsaw, a detour will lead them through the Stęszew interchange, towards DW 306 and 311 roads, further towards the Poznań Komorniki interchange, where they may enter the motorway heading to Warsaw.

• For drivers coming from Wrocław (S5 expressway) and intending to enter the motorway in the direction of Świecko, a detour will lead them through the Stęszew interchange, towards DW 306 and 311 roads, further towards the Poznań Komorniki interchange, where they may enter the motorway heading to Świecko.

• For drivers traveling from the direction of Piła (S11) and intending to enter the motorway in the direction of Warsaw, a detour will lead them through the Tarnowo Podgórne interchange, on the DK 92 road to Września, then entering the motorway at the Września interchange or earlier, through the Kostrzyn interchange (S5) to the Poznań East interchange and further entering the A2.

• For drivers traveling from the direction of Piła (S11) and intending to enter the motorway in the direction of Świecko, a detour will lead them through the Ławica interchange, further onto the DW 307 road to the Buk interchange, where they will be able to merge into Świecko-bound traffic.

• In addition, for drivers traveling from the direction of Piła (S11) in the direction of Katowice, a detour will lead them through the Ławica interchange, then through the streets of Poznań (Bukowska-Reymonta-Głogowska) to the Poznań Komorniki interchange, where there will be able to come back onto the motorway.

The pavement rehabilitation at the Poznań Zachód interchange stems from the Company’s concern for high quality of the road infrastructure and for ensuring travel comfort and safety for drivers.

Completion of that phase has been scheduled within ca. two weeks. After completion, the works will move to the exit slip roads, which will be announced in a separate communication. Please note that the pace of works and the completion date depend largely on favorable weather conditions. Rainfall, hail or other inclement weather may delay the works.

In parallel with the rehabilitation of the Poznań Zachód interchange, the General Directorate of National Roads and Motorways in Poznań will perform rehabilitation of the State-managed road sections around the Poznań Zachód interchange.

The scope of works of both Autostrada Wielkopolska and the GDDKiA has been planned to be executed in parallel, thus avoiding the need to close the sections once again later.
