Hungary’s M44 dual carriageway project looks set to be further extended by around 61.4km. Plans are being set for the construction of an additional three sections of the route, with the work looking to cost in excess of €471 million. The three sections will be constructed between the towns of Tiszakurt and Kondoros and as the latter lies close the border with Romania, this work will improve Hungary’s road links to its neighbour. The Hungarian contractors Duna Aszfalt and Hodut will build two stretches of the dual carriageway, measuring 20.5km and 20.4km. A consortium comprising Swietelsky Hungary, EuroAszfalt, A-Hid and Soltut will construct the remaining 20.5km stretch of the route.

    Kenya is on track to build a new highway connection from the port of Lamu to Isiolo. The project is for a 530km highway and will cost US$620 million, with the route running through Garissa.
