The Polish Ministry of Infrastructure has addressed concerns regarding heavy vehicle traffic and its impact on air quality and public health, specifically along the S1 expressway near Żywiec. To manage these issues, the General Directorate for National Roads and Motorways is utilizing the National Traffic Management System (KSZR), an integrated IT system that employs roadside devices, cameras, and meteorological stations to monitor traffic density and speed.

Concurrently, the implementation of Clean Transport Zones (SCT) has become a subject of political dispute. Maciej Mazur, director of the Polish Association of New Mobility, observed that political controversy has obscured the environmental objectives of these zones, causing some local governments to hesitate. Despite this, some municipalities are pursuing alternative environmental strategies, such as narrowing streets and adjusting parking policies, to limit emissions.
