The project deals with the construction of road II/547 in the districts of Gelnica and Spišská Nová Ves as an important link in the Košice region, which is its main activity. It includes the construction of the road, modernisation of stops with barrier-free modification on platforms, modernisation of the junction in the town of Krompachy, construction modification of passes, replacement and addition of guardrails, installation of meteostations. The objective of the proposed construction modification is to improve road safety and fluidity, to increase traffic comfort of road users and to extend the life of the building objects concerned. Traffic times on the road will be shortened, the cost of normal maintenance of roads is minimised, noise levels and vehicle emissions will be reduced, and conditions for public transport by road within the public passenger transport system will be improved. The target group is the users of the road transport network, in particular residents of towns and villages, operators and investors in industrial zones and public bus operators. The measurable indicator is the total length of reconstructed or renovated Class II roads with a value of 10,478 km. Overall, the project will contribute to a more balanced territorial development and increase the region’s intrinsic potential for economic growth.
