In Slovakia plans are in hand for work to the D3 route that will involve the construction of a flyover, a bridge and a tunnel.

The construction work commenced in June 2014 and is due for completion by 2017. The work is complex and includes building flyover over the Hricovska Prehrada Dam, as well as driving a tunnel and constructing bridge over the Kysuca River. When complete this section will bypass the town of Zilina and will improve Slovakia’s road links to Poland and the Czech Republic. The flyover and Kysuca Bridge will measure a total of 2km. The flyover is being constructed on 57 supports, of which 35 measure 18-20m high and will stand in water.
