EIB considers financing two road PPPs in Netherlands and Poland

EIB has announced it is considering financing two road projects under PPP scheme in Netherlands and Poland.

This projects are namely the Lower Silesia Region Roads and the Blankenburg Tunnel PPPs.

The Lower Silesia Region Roads project (Dolnoslaska Voivodship PPP) involves the reconstruction and upgrading of a network of approximately 111 km of regional roads in the province of Lower Silesia in Poland. The road network to be financed is located in the vicinity of Wroclaw and partly forms a alternative route for the A4 motorway.

 The project will improve traffic conditions on a TEN-T road corridor (Core TEN-T Baltic – Adriatic). The project is expected to reduce the existing road bottlenecks, reduce congestion, and increase load-bearing capacity, thus generating time and vehicle operating-cost savings. 

The Blankenburg Tunnel PPP project consists of the construction of a 2x3 lanes motorway of approximately 4.2km, incorporating below river and land based tunnels. The project also includes lowered connections to the A20 motorway and elevated connections to the A15 motorway. The project is situated near the city of Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

The Blankenburg project is located on the comprehensive TEN-T road network. The project aims to increase capacity and improve road safety on sections of the Dutch motorway near Rotterdam and underlying road network with heavy traffic, and is being procured as a design-build-finance-maintain (DBFM) public-private partnership (PPP).
