In this paper the authors analyse the early stages of the highway construction program in Poland. They argue that the whole investment process could be accelerated if much attention was paid to establishing a better legal framework. Investigating the bids for the A2 highway and the implementation of the concession agreement, they highlight the excessive red tape and poor monitoring system which led to a serious slowdown in the construction process. They also stress the necessity of choosing the best adapted financing method for infrastructure investments, as the use of the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) scheme has partially failed because of its financial weakness.
