CH2M selected for Poland's Lower Silesia region's road design project

Poland's General Directorate for National Roads and Highways awarded CH2M a contract for the feasibility study for the expansion of the country’s 70 km long National Road No.8, which is intended to improve travel times for the 30,000 daily vehicles using the heavily-trafficked portions of the road. As part of the contract, CH2M will develop a corridor study, feasibility study (STEŚ), conceptual design for the selected best option and adjust the model functional and utility program.

Poland's General Directorate for National Roads and Highways awarded CH2M a contract for the feasibility study for the expansion of the country’s 70 km long National Road No.8, which is intended to improve travel times for the 30,000 daily vehicles using the heavily-trafficked portions of the road.

As part of the contract, CH2M will develop a corridor study, feasibility study (STEŚ), conceptual design for the selected best option and adjust the model functional and utility program. The feasibility study will compare alternatives based on technical, economic and environmental factors throughout the project location and will include traffic analysis to reach an optimal design version of the route.

    C/AVs could mean cheaper roads
    The safety benefits of C/AVs have long been promoted – but research suggests they should also contribute to cheaper roads. David Crawford investigates the potential benefits in infrastructure costs Building narrower freeway lanes to accommodate the enhanced route-tracking capabilities of connected and autonomous vehicles (C/AVs), running in platoon conditions, could result in cost savings of £0.5 million (€0.56 million or US$6.5 million) for every km of road length built. Such benefits could be secur
