Duna Aszfalt has already played a major role in the ZalaZone project, having implemented several significant track elements on this unique test track in Europe. Most recently, in July, the first element of the military off-road track, which was jointly constructed with Szabadics Zrt., was handed over by the Hungarian company. Duna Aszfalt also recently completed the construction of the highway section, which was put into use in June. With the high-speed highway section and previously constructed track elements, the test track's completion level exceeded 90 percent in June. This large-scale project is expected to be completed by the end of the year, as per the original plans. The specific elements of the self-driving car test track, which are the core of the ZalaZone project, were designed by Főmterv Zrt., while ZÁÉV Zrt. played a significant role in overground construction, executing several buildings.
