Łódź

Last year, the nearby city of Stryków became an important highway junction and Łódź probably has the best road connections among all Polish cities. The people in the city are very enthusiastic about it (http://www.lodzkie.autost...), despite the fact that the development plans for a city by-pass and a highway connecting the city to Warsaw have been changing constantly over the last few years so there is no real guarantee even now that they will be carried out. For now:

The  A2   E30  is finished to Poznań and partly to Berlin there is a small gap at the border, substituting  2 

A small part of  A1  around Łódź, which is planned to substitute the  1   E75  road between Gdańsk and Katowice, the most congested road in Poland, is also ready.

The planned  A8  highway to Wrocław has been downgraded in plans to  S8  expressway.
