A new transport corridor is being built in the southern part of Baja

According to the tender specifications, the successful bidder will be responsible for constructing the southern bypass road in Baja and the roundabout junction at the intersection of Baja 5501 and Nagy István Street, as well as renovating the connecting roads.

A comprehensive road development project is being implemented

As part of the project, the southern bypass road in Baja – forming part of the future Route 51 – will be constructed along a new route spanning approximately 4 kilometres. The project will involve the construction of a dual-carriageway national road, together with the associated transport infrastructure.

As part of the project, approximately 1.7 kilometres of connecting national roads will be upgraded. In addition, 2.4 kilometres of 2×1-lane service roads will be built, along with 0.2 kilometres of footpaths and cycle paths, and 1.2 kilometres of cycle paths. As part of the junction system, three single-lane roundabouts and one multi-lane roundabout will be constructed.

Junction improvements and road resurfacing

The contractor is also responsible for converting the junction between the existing road marked 5501 and Nagy István Street in Baja into a roundabout. In addition, the approximately 0.8-kilometre stretch of road between the two project sections will also be upgraded.

In connection with the section to be renovated, the contractor must also prepare the construction drawings. Environmental regulations will be given particular attention during the project: regular noise measurements must be carried out during the construction works, from the demolition phase through to the laying of the road surface.

Noise control during construction

The contractor must carry out continuous noise measurements at least once every two weeks at the points specified in the environmental permit or the building permit. If no such requirement is included in the permits, the measurement locations must be specified in the environmental management plan for the construction phase.

Noise monitoring points must be designated, for example, if a temporary construction site or landfill is located within 30 metres of a property requiring protection from noise; if the transport route runs along a low-traffic local road near residential properties; or if a bridge or retaining wall is being demolished within 50 metres of a residential area.

The contractor is also responsible for evaluating and documenting the measurement results. If noise levels exceed the limit value, an action plan must be drawn up – for example, by installing mobile noise barriers, using quieter machinery or adjusting the work schedule. The contractor must inform the client and the engineer of the measurement results and any proposed measures within five days.
