Explanation:
EXAMPLE:

This modern museum has three major exhibit areas. First is the National Road, early America's busiest land artery to the West. The National Road stretched from Cumberland, MD. to Vandalia, IL. Begun in 1806, the "Main Street of America" was the only significant land link between east coast and western frontier in the early 19th century. A 136 foot diorama of the National Road plus many objects illustrate this theme

main road


Explanation:
Too late, but I think "droga krajowa" is simply "main road". Robert's "National Road" is a sort of an American symbol...
