Drivers should pay more attention. They launched a modern traffic management on D1 – PRAVDA.sk

New variable light traffic signs began to operate over the lanes of the highway along its entire length in the capital. Drivers should therefore pay more attention. In some periods, a maximum speed of 130 kilometers per hour may be permitted.

The first phase of line management concerns the Bratislava D1 motorway, ie between the Bratislava, Pečňa junction and the future Bratislava, East junction (currently the Vajnory exit). Subsequently, in the second stage, it will be on the section of the D2 motorway from the Sitina tunnel, or the Mlynská dolina exit to the Jarovce junction.

With the introduction of the system called Smart and smart motorways, the occurrence and extent of convoys should be significantly reduced, traffic flow improved and road safety increased. The new system is also expected to increase the capacity of the road network by ten to twenty percent. In the event of aggravation or serious incidents, the corresponding restrictions, prohibitions and warnings will be illuminated on the signs, and in ideal conditions the traffic signs will go out.

After the bypass, it will also be possible to drive at a speed of 130 kilometers per hour in some periods of time, at a time of lower traffic intensities and in favorable weather conditions. During rush hour, a more significant speed limit must be taken into account.

In the future, the line control system should be extended on the D1 motorway to Senec and on the D2 motorway to the future Bratislava junction (currently Stupava). It will also be applied on the construction of the Bratislava bypass, ie on the D4 motorway from Jaroviec to Rača and on the R7 expressway in the section Bratislava, Nivy – Bratislava, south.
