On 20 October 2015 the consortium of Budimex (95%, leader) and Ferrovial Agroman signed with the Zielona Góra Division of the General Directorate for National Roads and Motorways a contract for the construction of the 13.3 kilometre-long second carriageway of the S3 express road from Nowa Sól to Sulechów. The net value of the contract amounts to PLN 158 million.
The S3 express road section to be built by Budimex will run parallel to the existing western carriageway of the S3 within Zielona Góra, Racula and Niedoradz.
