As a member of the “M3 Kraszna 2012 Consortium”, Colas Hungária was awarded the construction works of the motorway M3 section between main road 49 and Vásárosnamény, along with related structures, through a public procurement procedure. One of the challenges of the project is the relocation of an 800-mm-diameter high-pressure gas pipeline crossing the site at a very acute angle, thus – taking safety zones into consideration – it obstructs activities on a 1.5-km-long section of the site, including a bridge. On areas unaffected by the gas line, construction works were launched without delay subsequent to the handing over of the site on 30 April.
