The National Motorway DK47 leading from Rabka to the famous Polish resort Zakopane in the heart of Tatra Mountains, and thus nicknamed Zakopianka, is being developed and modernised. Its most recent section 16 km long between Rdzawka and Nowy Targ expected be opened in October this year will become one of the most picturesque routes in Poland. It is situated in a mountainous terrain, including 4 km on viaducts, bridges and flyovers, in total 29 highland engineering structures. The longest 700-metre flyover in Lasek will be 30 meters above the ground. The section has been built since 2020 at the cost zł 1b ($ 250 m) and will give travellers breathtaking views of highland plains and Tarta panorama creating the impression of traversing central Alps. DK47 is one of the oldest Polish motorways classified for the first time as the State Motorway No. 1 in 1920.
