Unexpected Waste Dumps Drive Up Costs for Three-Kilometer R1 Highway Section
Share:
Construction costs for a three-kilometer section of the R1 highway between Banská Bystrica and Slovenská Ľupča have increased due to unexpected waste dumps discovered during construction. The highway authority has not yet announced a completion date for the first phase of this problematic stretch. The R1 is part of Slovakia's highway network connecting the central regions of the country, with this particular section representing a key link in the route between Banská Bystrica, the regional capital of central Slovakia, and surrounding areas.
