Current event marker
This article or section contains information about a planned or expected future road.
It may contain information of a speculative nature and the content may change dramatically as the road's construction and/or completion approaches and more information becomes available.

It will consist of D4 and (maybe) R8/NO motorroad. It will start and end at the Austrian border.

Currently, there is only short stretch of D4 motorway long 3 km (1,9 mi) from the Austrian border. There are planned 3 major bridges (over Danube, Little Danube and Morava rivers), 2 covered tunnels (near the Bratislava airport) and 1 tunnel (under Little Carpathians). Most of the sections are going to be built after the year 2010.
