National road 96 (Polish: Droga krajowa nr 96, abbreviated as DK96) is a main road of accelerated traffic (class GP road;[1] Polish: droga główna ruchu przyspieszonego, droga klasy GP), belonging to Polish national roads network, with length of 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) and located in Toruń County (West Pomeranian Voivodeship). It connects motorway A1 (Turzno junction) with national road 15. With its length, the route is the shortest one of all national roads in Poland.A

It was established by the Ordinance No. 60 of the General Director for National Roads and Motorways of December 20, 2013, that became valid on January 1, 2014.[2]

The signage of national road 96 is placed only at the exit of Turzno toll plaza on the junction with motorway A1[3] and near the roundabout with national road 15[4] – the route number was not placed on the signpost boards.

From 1986[5] to 2000[6] the number 96 was assigned to Bielsko-BiałaKętyWadowiceGłogoczów route,[7] which currently is signed as road 52.

Because the route is a direct link to the motorway, vehicles other than motorcars (low-speed vehicles, bicycles, mopeds, horse-drawn, etc.) cannot use it.

Permissible axle load

The entire route is designed for a single axle load of up to 11.5 tonnes (25,000 lb).[8][9]
