The highest intensity of diversified phenomena related to cross-border traffic is found within a 50-km-wide strip of land located along the national border. Limited access to the border regions, resulting from the lack of an integrated network of transport systems which would direct traffic to border crossings, appears to pose a major challenge. The transport infrastructure within the cross-border areas plays a vital role in the regional and international transport system. The initiative falling within the scope of the Project is aimed at making the borderland locations available to investors, through a modern transport infrastructure, and also at improving (i) the quality of life of the local population, (ii) the tourist and economic attractiveness of the border regions, and (iii) the overall road-traffic safety. The Project will exert a positive impact on the road-traffic conditions within the transport system of the Lubelskie Voivodeship by ensuring faster and more convenient access to tourist areas located on both sides of the state border, i.e. in the Łęczyńsko-Włodawskie Lake District (Poland) and in the Shatsky National Park (Ukraine). The main purpose of the project is to improve accessibility to the social and economic infrastructure, which will increase the entrepreneurial and tourist attractiveness of the region, thus exerting a positive impact on the quality of life of its residents. The project outcomes will comprise establishing a transport connection between the Zbereże-Adamczuki border crossing and the TEN-T network (DK 17), along with improving road-traffic safety. By improving the quality of road infrastructure, the project will contribute to: – shortening travel times, – improving road-traffic safety, – proliferating external investments, – improving the functioning of the road-transport system, – reducing any negative environmental impact, – improving the living conditions of the local population.
