Czech capital ring road revision proposed

Revisions are being put forward for the ring road project around Czech capital Prague.

The project for the new route will include the construction of a number of bridge sections and will be shorter than the first plan. A study will be carried out into this alternative route and should take up to 12 months to complete.
