📋 Tender Overview
The Directorate of Roads and Highways (RSD) currently has contracts ready for signature with contractors for construction worth 17.5 billion CZK excluding VAT. This involves ten large investment projects such as the eastern Bohemian D11 construction from Jaromer to Trutnov D35 from Ulibice to Horice the reconstruction of the Aviaticka interchange on D7 in Prague or the bypass of the town of Plasy in the Plzen region on I/27. The government approved the budget of the State Fund for Transport Infrastructure (SFDI) for 2026 which allocates 81.1 billion CZK for RSD. Once the budget is approved by the deputies it will be possible to start the construction projects. RSD also has tenders announced for contractors for 17 large investment projects. Their estimated value is a total of 24.4 billion CZK excluding VAT. RSD did not have to remove any key constructions from the original plans for this year. In the Czech Republic construction of up to 105 kilometers of highways is expected to begin this year.
The government-approved SFDI budget will allow us to practically start all the constructions we currently have prepared for this year for implementation. It will also be possible to continue with the construction of all ongoing projects prepare strategic actions and start the implementation of over 30 new large investment projects on highways and first-class roads. This is very positive news for all drivers. New highways and first-class roads will continue to be built which will help further develop the Czech Republic said the general director of RSD Radek Matl.
Among the constructions waiting only for a signature are in addition to those mentioned above the eight-kilometer Martinovicka connection on I/16 between Mlada Boleslav and Martinovice the reconstruction of the Okrouhla interchange in the Liberec region or the straightening of road I/57 behind Krnov in the Moravian-Silesian region.
RSD expects that including two sections of D35 planned as a PPP project construction of 105 kilometers of highways will begin this year. The most important ones according to the head of RSD alongside the mentioned D11 are also the last two sections of the D6 highway totaling 15 kilometers and the PPP project on D35 which are sections from Opatovec to Mohelnice. There will also be the longest highway tunnel in the Czech Republic Detrichov four kilometers long. This means that by 2029 at the latest both the D11 and D6 highways will be completely finished emphasized Radek Matl. There are also plans to start construction of two sections of the D55 highway namely Kokory - Prerov and Napajedla - Babice.
There are also plans for several new first-class road constructions which are often bypasses. Funds should be available to start building the first phase of the southern Moravian Znojmo bypass the bypass of Breclav and Bucovice in southern Moravia the bypass of Pelhrimov in Vysocina the southeastern bypass of Pardubice and also the highway bypass of eastern Bohemian Ulibice. These are constructions that deserve great attention and I am very glad that funds will also be found for them said Radek Matl.
From this year to next year RSD has postponed only very few constructions and repairs. These include the bypass of Sternberk in the Olomouc region the reconstruction of the Drzovice interchange on D46 near Prostejov the construction of telematics systems on the D6 highway or the construction of the Highway Management and Maintenance Center in Stritez on D11. Most of these are investment projects whose delay will have no negative impact on traffic. The delay is due to the current state of their preparation said Radek Matl.
This year RSD plans to put into operation nearly 40 kilometers of new highways and 21 kilometers of new sections of first-class roads. It is also about opening the D35 section Dzbanov - Litomysl earlier than planned this year. Currently RSD is constructing 135 kilometers of new highways and nearly 67 kilometers of first-class roads.
