Hungary will spend just over €218 million (US$242 million) on road renovations this year, according to the State Secretary of the 6465 Hungarian Ministry of National Development.
Laszlo Taso, head of infrastructure development within the ministry, made the announcement and said more than 500km of roads, both trunk and secondary, would be upgraded.
Hungary announced in January that it is considering introducing a vehicle congestion charge scheme in the capital Budapest at the end of 2016. The scheme will help pay back European Union funding worth just over €565 million that was used to pay for the construction of the M4 underground line in the city.
