The road at the junction of the Mátra and the Great Plain is being renovated

The road on the outskirts of Markaz in Heves County is being modernised, with the local government's project being carried out by HE-DO. Work began in October 2024 and is scheduled to be completed within 10 months. In the village near Gyöngyös, the road construction company, which is also based in Heves County and has connections in central and north-eastern Hungary, is renovating two road sections with a total length of 3,552 metres.

Frequently used road becomes safer

The communication HE-DO indicates that the location of the renovation is within the administrative territory of Markaz, but in the countryside. They add:

As the road section involved in the project will carry significant traffic between Markaz and the power plant, the project will significantly improve the comfort of commuters and make the road section safer to use.

"During the reconstruction, potholing, full asphalt milling at the joints of the existing roads is required, and then we will build a wearing course on the entire road section, construct the road embankments, clean and profile the existing ditch sections" - reports Gábor Pintér, the chief architect of HE-DO.

This is how construction is progressing this year

In 2023, the HE-DO specialists finished the embankment cutting and potholing, as well as a significant part of the trench profiling on both sections.The trench profiling and pavement milling works will continue from mid-February 2024, followed by the asphalt wearing course and the construction of the asphalt wearing course and the refined embankment.

"It is always a pleasure when you can work close to where you live and make the built environment more beautiful, making the everyday life of the people living here easier", adds Gábor Pintér.
