The project consists of 14 schemes, of which 6 major urban road schemes (reconstruction and extension of inner city roads and inner-city bypass, partly in connection to Euro 2012), 3 tram schemes (including light railway extension) and 5 hospital schemes already included in the Poznań City development Plan 2005-2010. The Project is a consequence of long-term investment plans (fast tram – since the 1970s) of the City and its goal to increase its attractiveness to business (better connection to Airport).
The selected schemes are part of the City’s Development Plan and are expected to contribute to the development strategy of the City of Poznań, improving accessibility through an increase in the road capacity and the reduction of congestion, improving the quality of life.
