The above scope of works is planned to be performed within approx. two weeks. The Company obliged the contractor to timely complete the works in the least arduous way for drivers. However, unfavorable weather conditions, such as strong wind and rainfall may cause the works completion date to change.

The rehabilitation of bituminous pavement between Nowy Tomyśl and Poznań is provided for in the long term plan of repair works with the purpose to ensure high road quality and safety and comfort of drivers. Autostrada Wielkopolska is the longest and the most heavily used concession motorway section in Poland. A large part of the vehicles driving in the motorway are heavy vehicles, naturally increasing the wearing of pavement which requires rehabilitation as a result.
