S51 Olsztyn Bypass
The investment covers over 16 km of the Olsztyn East – Olsztyn South route. In addition to the main route, Budimex’s task was also to build three road junctions – Olsztyn Jaroty, Olsztyn Pieczewo and Olsztyn East, service roads and renovation of sections of selected local roads.
Two roadways with two lanes in each direction with a bituminous surface and 23 bridge structures were built: 12 viaducts over the expressway, 3 viaducts for the expressway, 2 bridges, 2 animal crossings, 1 railway viaduct, 1 footbridge. The contract also included the construction of road drainage facilities, road ditches, rainwater drainage, retention reservoirs, lighting, power grids, and teletechnical equipment. Budimex was also responsible of the Traffic Management System.
The numbers of contact are impressive. During the earthworks and preparation of the sites, Budimex removed approx. 400 thousand m³ of soil, made over 2 million m³ of excavations and laid a total of approx. 500,000m2 (350,000 tonnes) of bituminous pavement. In order to stabilize the marshy and boggy area where the bypass was built, 7 million tons of replacement soil had to be brought in this place – this is the equivalent of the volume of 5 National Stadiums in Warsaw. There were also approx. 7 thousand m2 of acoustic screens. During the bridge works, 3.5 thousand tons of steel structure, 5.7 thousand tons of reinforcing steel and 51 thousand m³ of structural concrete were made.
