The high cost may be explained by the complexity of the section.Continue reading
The final section of the new motorway linking two countries will be opened in Hungary this spring, and in Croatia a year later. The M6 motorway and the Croatian A5 motorway are scheduled to merge in March 2025, reports Világgazdaság.
The new Hungarian section of the M6 motorway is scheduled to open in March 2024. This means that it will be possible to drive on this line as far as the Villány (southern Hungary) junction. In addition, the Croats have started construction of the motorway between the Hungarian border and Beli Manastir (Pélmonostor). The construction permit for the section between Kneževo (Főherceglak) and the border could be issued in Croatia by next spring.
Once completed, this highway will create a new road link between the two countries.

On other lines, it will not take so long to complete the work. As Világgazdaság understands, the construction of the motorway between Bóly and Ivándárda (both in southern Hungary) could be completed by the end of January this year. This section will then be connected to the Villány junction.
The Croats started work last autumn on the northbound section from Beli Manastir. The construction of this motorway will take 18 months, with completion expected in March 2025. The entire line will then be opened to traffic at the border. As this is the last missing section of the Croatian A5,
the M6 highway will be fully completed by the first half of 2025, creating a 300-kilometer-long continuous motorway link between Budapest and the Bosnian-Croatian border.
