VINCI Secures Major Highway Contract in the Czech Republic
The consortium led by Eurovia CZ, a subsidiary of VINCI Construction, has been awarded by the Czech Road and Motorway Directorate the construction of the final section of the D11 highway between Jarom?? and Trutnov. Construction starts in April 2026 with completion slated for the end of 2029.
Completion of the Trans-European Transport Network
The final section of the D11 highway is part of the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T). Once completed, the highway will stretch 155 km, connecting Prague to the Polish border. The construction includes 20 km of roadway, 31 bridges (totaling 2.5 km in length), and a 767-meter tunnel.
Environmental Consideration and Local Comfort
The project will be carried out with respect for the environment and the comfort of local residents. The construction of the tunnel and 12 km of noise barriers will help reduce noise pollution. Migration corridors for wildlife have been identified, studied, and secured.

In 2025, VINCI Construction generated revenues exceeding 1.2 billion euros in the Czech Republic. The VINCI Group is also present through VINCI Energies, which mainly undertakes electrical infrastructure projects, and VINCI Concessions, holder of the public-private partnership contract for the D4 highway (Via Salis).
