Cheaper construction thanks to new law, says Czech Minister

Czech Transport Minister Pavel Dobes believes a recent amendment to the land expropriation law, which has been approved by the Czech Senate in November 2012, will reduce the cost of current construction projects by 10%-15%. The ministry is also said to be keen to further lower the price of motorways construction by reducing the number of exits and interchanges, and will require a financial support from those municipalities which will want their own motorway exits.
