Plans to fully close the Pentele Bridge, located on Hungary’s M8 motorway over the Danube, have been scrapped. 

There is a person behind this text – not artificial intelligence. This material was entirely prepared by the editor, using their knowledge and experience.

The Pentele bridge is a key regional freight corridor, and remaining maintenance works will now be carried out under weekend-only traffic restrictions.

According to an announcement issued on 2 June 2025, the maintenance schedule has been reorganised. As a result, the remaining works will be carried out during weekends only, avoiding a full closure throughout June.

The next full closure is scheduled from Friday, 6 June at 7 p.m. until Saturday evening, 7 June. During this period, the Pentele Bridge will be entirely closed to traffic. 

A designated diversion route will be in place via Route 52 between Dunaföldvár and Solt.

The contractor will continue to provide advance notice of all upcoming work and potential closures through its website, social media channels, and ÚTINFORM.
