	How was the Polish A4 motorway built?

	 

	The Polish A4 motorway, with a length of 672 km, runs from the border with Germany via Wrocław, Katowice, Kraków and Rzeszów to the border with Ukraine. The construction of the motorway, interrupted by political, economic and technical factors, stretched over 80 years. Before 1945, it had been built as a German autobahn connecting Berlin with Upper Silesia. After the war, already within the Polish borders, it initially served to connect Lower and Upper Silesia with Kraków, and then became a transit route between Germany and Ukraine. The construction of the final stretch of the motorway was strongly associated with the political changes in Europe after 1989, and especially with the Polish accession to the European Union. European funds had a major impact on the acceleration of investment at the turn of the century.
