Expressway S7 or express road S7 (Template:Lang-pl) is a major road in Poland which has been planned to run from Gdańsk on the Baltic coast through Elbląg, Warsaw, Radom, Kielce and Kraków to Rabka near the border with Slovakia. On almost the entire route, the S7 will be built by upgrading the existing National Road 7 (DK 7). Its total planned length is 720 km (450 mi), of which 308 km (191 mi) has been built and a further 145.9 km (90.7 mi) is under construction in December 2019.
The upgrade is part of a European plan to fund 330 kilometers of new express roads in Poland.[1]
As of August 2022, the longest stretch of this road that has been completed is a 258 km (160 mi) long section between Gdańsk and the village of Siedlin.
According to current government plans, the road is to be completed by 2026, with the exception of Kraków - Myślenice section (25 km) where the existing dual carriageway national road 7 will serve the traffic until S7 is constructed in unspecified future. In 2020, a study for a dual-carriageway extension of S7 from Rabka-Zdrój to the Polish-Slovak border (connecting to R3 expressway) was announced.[2]
