Tychy's air quality faces the Upper Silesian industrial corridor's challenges, with the Fiat Stellantis automotive plant and surrounding Silesian coal industry background generating vehicle and industrial emissions alongside traffic on the A4 motorway. Winter coal burning maintains elevated PM2.5 consistently above EU guideline values throughout the year.
