Works related to the modernization of the Gdańsk Port were carried out as part of the “Connecting Europe” program co-financed by the European Union and covered both the area of the Inner Port (running along Martwa Wisła and the port canal) and the Outer Port located in the waters of the Gulf of Gdańsk.

The purpose of the investment in the Outer Port was to improve road accessibility to the bases located in the port area, which is why the construction of such infrastructure elements as a parking lot for trucks, railway tracks and engineering facilities was carried out as part of it. Due to the increased rail and car traffic leading to the transhipment terminals, the internal road was also reconstructed, separating two lanes in each direction and two left-turn lanes at the intersection of Kontenerowa and Portowa streets. To improve safety on the modernized road, ELDRO installed traffic lights.
