The consortium consists of Strabag, which holds 50.12% stake, and Duna Aszfalt Zrt.
The project is slated to be completed within three years.
Strabag CEO Thomas Birtel said: “Closing this gap creates a new border crossing with Croatia as part of the Hungarian motorway network. This will significantly reduce the travel time for international passenger and road freight traffic.”
