The second phase of the Nagykörút tram line renovation near Jászai Mari tér is now in its second phase
On Thursday, the second phase of the renovation of the tram line on the Grand Boulevard in the capital is already underway: work is also progressing on the Pest side, according to a joint statement by Budapesti Közlekedési Központ (BKK) and BKV Zrt..
The modernisation of the tram line on the Grand Boulevard began on 21 June between Tátra Street and Jászai Mari Square, as we wrote, on the section leading to Buda, and since then, a significant part of the demolition, concreting and laying of elements has been completed. In the second phase, which starts on Thursday, work will also begin on the Pest side; according to the plans, the major repair of the track section will last until 31 July.
Due to the next stage of the construction work, traffic will be disrupted on Thursday on the affected section of the Grand Boulevard, with two-way traffic on the Buda-bound side.
A special track system with circular track casting will be built
Road traffic - including buses - will continue to use two lanes, but the lanes will be moved from the southbound side to the northbound side of the XIII district. The transfer points will remain unchanged at Margaret Bridge and Pannónia Street. Replacement buses will also run along this route, but their stopping points will remain the same. On the Pest side of the Margaret Bridge, the existing single lane from Buda will be extended from Thursday. A separate lane will be created for those heading towards Nyugati tér, while a lane will be left for those turning towards Balassi Bálint utca.
As part of the modernisation, the BKV Zrt. will incorporate a special track system with circular track casting. The technology will reduce noise and vibration levels and allow trams to run faster
