National road 50 (Polish: Droga krajowa nr 50) is a route belonging to the Polish national road network. The highway forms a part of bypass of Warsaw metropolitan area, running from 29 to 84 km away from centre of Warsaw. The route has two bridges over Vistula, one in Wyszogród and another in Góra Kalwaria.

Because of the heavy traffic (road is used as a detour for trucks due to restrictions in Warsaw), the highway was completely reconstructed and has a few bypasses along major and smaller towns.
