The bypass routes will lead through two first-class roads, parallel roads in Trnava, and the R1 express dual-carriageway.

“We will start closing the highway on Saturday [April 29] morning and we will gradually start opening it on Sunday [April 30] afternoon,” said NDS spokesperson Michaela Michalová, as quoted by TASR.

In case of bad weather the NDS will postpone the construction works for one week, i.e. to the weekend of May 6-7.
