History

The road was included in the Regulation of the Council of Ministers of September 29, 2001 as a new expressway planned on the entire course of the existing national road 47. The project had been heavily criticised by the inhabitants of villages located near the route.[2]

With the next regulation, published in 2003, the expressway has been cancelled[3] and will not be constructed.
