Most of the transportation are local involving aggregate output. (c.a. 60%).


Air Transport

Air traffi c on Wrocław Airport is exceptionally dynamically developing. Presently it holds annually over one million passengers. Its expected growth will expand service capability in the following years up to 4 – 8 millions of passengers. Wrocław is fourth, regarding domestic fl ights connections, airport in Poland (after Warsaw, Gdańsk and Cracow). Its importance as an international airport is defi nitively smaller. General Plan prepared for its needs intends to undertake several investments to the year 2025 which would enlarge its capacity (passengers, goods, air operations) and also improvement of services. The airport development is to be carried in stages which implementation would depend on tempo of changes in air traffi c.
