PZDW

What PZDW does

PZDW (Podkarpacki Zarząd Dróg Wojewódzkich w Rzeszowie) is the regional road management authority for the Podkarpackie Voivodeship in southeastern Poland, operating under the Marshal of the Voivodeship. It is responsible for the administration, construction, modernization, and ongoing maintenance of voivodeship roads and bridges across the region, with its portfolio including routes such as DW 988 (Babica–Warzyce, 44 km) and 120+ bridges in the Bieszczady area, with new bridges built to load class A (up to 50 tons). PZDW delivers bypasses, dual-carriageway corridors, bridges, tunnels, and road expansions through externally procured public tenders rather than in-house construction.

The organization's service portfolio spans core road and bridge management, infrastructure investment project delivery, public procurement administration, traffic disruption and winter maintenance reporting, road procedure administration (overweight vehicle permits, right-of-way occupation, driveway localization, traffic organization projects), and electronic public administration via the ePUAP platform and the Public Information Bulletin (BIP). It is also KSeF-compliant for electronic invoicing. It serves general public road users, local government units (JSTs) such as powiaty and gminy, and freight/transport companies using the regional network for logistics, with average traffic of approximately 12,000 vehicles/day on the Strzyżów–Twierdza route.

PZDW is a government administrative entity with no commercial revenue model; it is funded entirely through public budgets — the Voivodeship's own budget, national funds (Rządowy Fundusz Rozwoju Dróg, Polski Ład, Rządowy Fundusz Inwestycji Lokalnych), and EU programs (RPO WP 2014-2020, Fundusze Europejskie dla Podkarpacia 2021-2027, Fundusze Europejskie dla Polski Wschodniej 2021-2027, INTERREG PL-SK, Interreg NEXT PL-UA). The organization operates from a headquarters in Rzeszów and a regional branch in Lubaczów with a lean administrative staff of approximately 15 employees, since all construction services are procured externally via public tenders.
