The route measures 14,920 metres and is meant to divert a significant portion of transit traffic away from the centre of Ružomberok. It is intended to bring motorists a faster connection and reduce traffic congestion in the town. The opening of the section is planned for approximately the early evening. zurnal.pravda.sk ↗
Even before drivers, pedestrian visitors will get the chance to walk along the new route. Details about the organisation of the opening, as well as the exact opening time, have not yet been given. zilinak.sk ↗
The construction was accompanied by long-running complications that significantly changed the original schedule. The Hubová – Ivachnová section is one of the important parts of the motorway connection in northern Slovakia, and its completion is set to change traffic around Ružomberok. aktuality.sk ↗
