Work will start in the second half of 2011 on a new stretch of Hungary's M3 highway between Vasarosnameny and the number 49 highway. The 12km construction project will be completed by the end of 2012. Meanwhile, construction design work for the 28km section of the M49 highway between Okoritofulpos and Or will be completed by the end of 2011. The new M49 section is expected to open by 2014. The project includes the construction of three rail overpasses, four canal overpasses and five junctions. Plans are also being made for a 33km long stretch of the M3 highway between Or and Nyiregyhaza. This last project will cost €120.5 million and should be completed by the end of 2012.
