Although the original estimates said that the delayed section of the R2 Kriváň – Mýtna in the direction from Detva to Lučenec would be ready at the beginning of summer 2025, now it doesn't look so “rosy” even with this deadline. “We would like to have it ready in October next year. So that drivers can drive there on their own,” HN quotes the head of the construction company Doprastav Dušan Mráz.
What is causing the delay to worsen? The landfill near the cemetery in Kriván is said to be ten times larger than originally estimated. The game should include the removal of waste to several landfills. The final details are not yet known. Only the removal of the material itself is supposed to cost four million euros.
When will they finish the R2 section? Hazardous waste and lycophagus
It is also an open question whether the landfill also contains hazardous waste, which is not yet known. Plus, it will be necessary to pump out polluted waste groundwater.
In Kriván, they can't wait for the new expressway. It is home to, for example, a larger factory for the production of Intercable cables, and the traffic situation is not helped by the rush of trucks transporting wood from trees affected by the lykozruto.
