Highway bypass to Bratislava to close as new four-lane section nears completion

Slovak authorities will close the existing highway bypass leading to Bratislava as construction of a new four-lane section approaches completion. The development is part of the long-delayed D1/D4 highway project connecting Bratislava to Trnava, which has been under construction for years. The new section of the D1 highway between Bratislava and Trnava has been completely rebuilt to modern standards, marking a significant milestone in Slovakia's infrastructure development. The D1/D4 project has been one of Slovakia's most prolonged highway construction efforts, with the completion of this section representing the final phase of the ambitious transportation infrastructure upgrade.
