In addition, two kilometres of the drinking water network will be extended and 840 metres of closed stormwater drainage will be constructed, as well as other infrastructure improvements.

It began in Gyula, next to the Airbus Helicopters Hungary factory (which was handed over by Market Építő Zrt. at the end of July last year), the town of Békés is implementing a new development phase in the southern industrial park, with a budget of more than HUF 1.3 billion, Mayor Ernő Görgényi announced on Wednesday.

The municipality has been awarded HUF 1 billion 193 million in EU funding, to which HUF 150 million will be added by the municipality itself.

The project involves more than 8,000 square metres of private land, with the municipality first acquiring 43 parcels of land of varying sizes, creating a width that will allow for a 7-metre wide road with a sunken kerb on both sides over 824 metres.

A complete infrastructure development package for the area

During the development, several water management developments will also take place, which will be carried out by FUTIZO Kft. at a net cost of approximately 469 million forints. An 840-metre closed rainwater drainage channel will be built, and the drinking water pipeline will also be extended by 2,000 metres. In addition, a gravity sewage trunk line will also be constructed.

In another sub-project, a substructure network will be built to supply elements of the communication network and 35 LED street lights will be installed on the road. A new public electricity network will be constructed with underground cable connection, providing the possibility of future electricity connections to properties adjacent to the road.

Airbus and local businesses benefit

The mayor said that Airbus Helicopters Hungary is currently the best known operator in the southern industrial area, but several small businesses from Gyula are also operating here and more are expected. "The construction of the road will also help the development of local businesses"

- he added.

As it is a fund from the previous EU cycle, the development must be completed by the end of the year. The tender does not support the construction of pedestrian and cycling facilities, so these will be financed from other sources.
