The Minister highlighted that this is the first expressway tunnel in Hungary to be realized purely through state investment. Following the trial operation of the Bécsi Hill tunnel, part of one of the largest domestic road construction projects of the year, and after the traffic authorization, soon 11 expressways will reach the national border. In 2010, there were only three.
Minister of Construction and Transport János Lázár announced near Nyírmeggyes in Szabolcs–Szatmár–Bereg County that the construction of the first, 28-kilometre-long segment of the expressway being built in two phases between the M3 motorway and the Hungarian–Romanian border has begun, with an investment of approximately 175 billion forints by Duna Aszfalt.
