Vilnius Western Bypass – Stage II
The second stage of the Vilnius Western Bypass involves the construction of a new A1-category high-speed road from Oslo Street to Ozo Street. This project ensures faster and more convenient connectivity between the suburbs and districts of Vilnius, significantly improving the city’s transportation infrastructure.
Impact on the city:
- Improved accessibility: The newly built expressway facilitates travel between the city’s suburbs and outlying areas, reducing travel time.
- Reduced traffic and pollution: The bypass has significantly decreased both traffic congestion and air pollution in central Vilnius streets, as most vehicles can now efficiently bypass the city center.
Long-term benefits:
- Enhanced transport connections increase Vilnius’ competitiveness and strengthen economic and logistical ties between the city and its surrounding regions.
- Improved quality of life for residents, as reduced traffic and emissions contribute to a healthier urban environment.
