We wrote about the matter in October this year. “By the end of the year, documentation for fencing the A4 motorway along the Krzywa–Wrocław section will be prepared,” Maciej Wołodko from the press office of the Wrocław branch of the General Directorate for National Roads and Motorways told us at the time.
It is a 100-kilometre section, so a total of 200 km of fencing will be built. “The aim is to protect drivers from animals entering the motorway,” M. Wołodko explained.
Two of our Readers immediately asked how high the fencing would be and whether it would also stop “more dangerous animals—deer and moose”. We decided to ask the GDDKiA spokesperson about this. Maciej Wołodko:
The planned fencing of the A4 motorway along the section from Krzywa to Wrocław will be 2.40 metres above the adjacent ground in wooded areas, and 2.20 metres in other areas. The migration routes of individual animal species were, of course, taken into account, requiring denser fencing at the bottom or an increase in its height in wooded areas.
After this article, a Reader asked:
What about the Krzywa–Krzyżowa section, the A4 and A18 interchange—will it be omitted as usual? Or perhaps they will build a giant tunnel over the motorway?
We once again give the floor to M. Wołodko:
According to the current design, the A4 Krzywa–Krzyżowa section will also be fenced.
