What’s Required
Poland’s transport strategy sets policy direction for modernising transport, improving accessibility and safety, and reducing environmental and climate impacts across the transport system.
Key elements include:
National policy objectives for sustainable transport outcomes through 2030, including improving system efficiency and reducing environmental impacts.
Support for modern solutions across passenger and freight transport and integration of sustainable urban mobility planning concepts (SUMPs) in national policy.
Strategic direction for infrastructure investment, modal shift, and system modernisation, with implementation through project pipelines, funding decisions, and regulatory instruments.
Important Deadlines
Adopted in 2019 (strategy adoption date referenced in EU mobility profiles and policy summaries).
Horizon: to 2030, with milestones delivered through programmes, budgets, and infrastructure timelines.
Current Status
Active as Poland’s national transport strategy, guiding investment priorities and policy direction, including urban mobility planning integration.
Penalties for Non-Compliance
No direct penalties (strategy).
Indirect exposure arises where projects fail to meet funding or procurement conditions shaped by strategic priorities.
Examples of Known Failures
Projects are designed without credible emissions and environmental impact mitigation, leading to delays in approvals or funding rejection.
Urban transport investments that omit sustainable mobility planning logic increase public opposition and implementation risk.
