In the years 2019 &#8211; 2020, 16 kilometers of the 3rd lane of the Pozna\u0144 Bypass were also built. In 2022 the long-term rehabilitation plans will continue to be implemented, starting from the pavement resurfacing between the Nowy Tomy\u015bl and Pozna\u0144 West interchanges. In addition, two bridges which have been used by drivers for over 30 years will be modified. Major renovation of the motorway toilet buildings will also be continued. In the coming years, the third lane on the Pozna\u0144 Krzesiny &#8211; Pozna\u0144 Wsch\u00f3d section will be built.<br \/>\nAutostrada Wielkopolska is the longest and most intensively used motorway section in Poland. The average daily traffic amounts to 30,000 vehicles, exceeding 100,000 vehicles on the Pozna\u0144 bypass. Heavy vehicles form a large part of the traffic, which naturally increases the wearing of the surface and the need for rehabilitation.<br \/>\nInvestments planned for next year are included in the long-term rehabilitation plan. Only in the current year as many as 3 motorway interchanges, namely Wrze\u015bnia, Rzepin and Torzym, have been modernized, with the wearing course and and partially binder course replaced in each interchange. Road markings and signposts have also been improved. All these activities impacted the safety and comfort of drivers traveling on Autostrada Wielkopolska.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Investments and repairs result not only from the natural wear of the carriageway, but also from responding to the needs of drivers and travelers. In today&#39;s reality, the motorway is less and less a simple product, and more and more a service. This service includes efficient, safe and comfortable travel, consisting of a good pavement, a high standard of winter maintenance, clean, tidy, attractive rest areas and parking lots, ecological lighting and, above all, all possible solutions improving road safety. This is what our drivers expect from us and this is what we wish to provide &#8211; emphasizes Krzysztof Andrzejewski, member of the Management Board of Autostrada Wielkopolska S.A.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The implementation of the planned rehabilitation of the Nowy Tomy\u015bl &#8211; Pozna\u0144 Zach\u00f3d section means in practice that the pavement on the asphalt part of the motorway (from Nowy Tomy\u015bl to Konin) will be completely replaced once again during the concession period. In addition, every two years the entire 900 km of road markings are renovated. Special paint with reflective microspheres that improve visibility is used for that purpose.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Safety is a priority for us, therefore all repairs and investments must meet this goal. We modernized 150 ERTs by the motorway, allowing for communication in the event of an emergency. We have also installed a modern LED lighting system on the Pozna\u0144 Motorway Bypass. Not only it is more ecological than traditional sodium lighting, but also allows, among other things, to adjust the light intensity to adapt to the current road conditions. For example, in the event of bad weather (snowstorm, rainstorm, etc.) or traffic obstruction (accident), the system allows for stronger illumination of the road. We plan to implement the same for the entire lighting along the highway &#8211; adds Sebastian Joachimiak, member of the Management Board of Autostrada Wielkopolska S.A.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\nThe traffic management system on the Pozna\u0144 bypass also serves to improve safety. The system features 10 large-format electronic boards and over 40 signs to control individual lanes. Drivers are informed about the situation on the motorway on an ongoing basis and quickly warned of any accident or a designated detour. In addition, the system is equipped with a set of integrated cameras that monitor and warn against dangerous situations, such as a vehicle going against the flow or pedestrians on the road. This allows for a quick reaction of all highway services.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A million square meters of pavement have already been replaced, and the long-term further rehabilitation works are planned to ensure safe and efficient travel on the Autostrada Wielkopolska.
