Its importance in the national transport system results from the fact that it connects the dynamically developing port agglomerations with the most industrialized regions in central and south Poland} which are characterized by a highest demand for passenger and cargo traffic. Besides} the geographic position of Poland as a transit country for European north-south traffic} and the growing volume of foreign trade and tourism between Central European countries} cause that the Polish transport corridor begins to have increasing importance in the European transport system.
