The Warsaw W-Z Route (Polish: Trasa W-Z, Trasa Wschód–Zachód, East-West Route) is a major thoroughfare in Warsaw, Poland, that joins Praga in the east with the city center, going through Muranów and out to Wola in the west.

It was one of the first major post-World War II infrastructure projects, carried out during 1947-1949.[1]
