Expressway R4 Košice – Milhosť, road connection M30 with R4 – traffic signs setup

Basic information

Goal of the project was to finalize the expressway R4, category R24,5/100, in relation with the direct connection of expressways R4 in Slovakia and M30 in Hungary, the extension of the road at the point of maintenance vehicles rotation from the Hungarian side and transfer and addition of stopping safety systems. The construction work was inevitable in order to connect expressways R4 and M30. This connection created direct, safe and capacitively satisfactory link of the international road E71, that runs from Kosice via Hungary to Split in Croatia.

The works consisted of stopping safety systems installation, the extension of the road at the point of maintenance vehicles rotation from the km 13,128 of the existing R4 towards Slovakia, which also involved the completion of the passage.

The project included as well the traffic signs setup and traffic equipment designed so expressway M30 can be opened and at the same time a temporary road connecting road I/17 with expressway R4 is closed.

The connection of expressway M30 on Hungarian-Slovak boarder was successfully opened on Tuesday, 16. January 2018.
