What shall we know from the exhibiton$5
A2 motorway is not only the most important transport link between Poland and Germany, but also a good example of co-operation between the state and the private business. It is also worth of notice that the Nowy Tomyśl-Świecko section is one of the longest motorway sections in Poland, build with the use of concrete technology, and in addition – available for exploitation six months before a date fixed in the agreement with government.
Many photos are also devoted to the environment protection, since the motorway to the border with Germany goes through forest areas in 85 percent, including the areas protected by Natura 2000 programme. A number of solutions concerning protection of animal tracks makes A2 motorway at present the biggest ecological project in Europe.
We invite you to the exhibition and wish you good impression!
