D4 Highway, Ivanka North - Záhorská Bystrica Final Opinion: (Number: 292/2011-7.3/ml) issued by the Ministry of Environment of the Slovak Republic under Act No. 24/2006 Coll. on the Environmental Impact Assessment amending and supplementing other acts as amended I. BASIC INFORMATION ON CLAIMANT 1. Name Národná diaľničná spoločnosť, a.s. 2. Identification No. 35919 001 3. Registered office Mlynské Nivy 45, 821 09 Bratislava II. Basic Data on the Intention 1. Name D4 Highway, Ivanka North - Záhorská Bystrica 2. Purpose The highway D4 represents a traffic link of the existing D1 and D2 highways in the southern, eastern and northern part of Bratislava, the capital of the Slovak Republic, while the affected area is extremely complicated also in terms of transport relations and linkages within the region of the "Great Bratislava" due to the rapid development of the subregion and constantly changing activities and functions in this extremely attractive area, where it is crucial to determine transport requirements and connections to the existing road system. In addition to the D2 and D1 highway connection, D4 will be a major international interconnection between Slovakia and Austria with transport links to Hungary and the Czech Republic. The highway D4 is currently in operation starting from the border between Austria and Slovakia up to the interchange of D4 and D2 Jarovce, covering 2.7 km. Also in operation at 1/2 of the profile is the highway D4 Záhorská Bystrica - Devínska Nová Ves (interchange Stupava South), which is 3.2 km long. According to the technical documentation (Feasibility and Suitability Study for Route of Highway D4, Dopravoprojekt 2009), the highway D4 in the section Ivanka South - Záhorská Bystrica is the section II of the highway D4, which is currently being prepared, while all the route of D4 is divided according to the mentioned documentation as follows: I. D4 Highway section Jarovce – Ivanka North II. D4 Highway section Ivanka North - Záhorská Bystrica III. D4 Highway section Záhorská Bystrica - Devínska Nová Ves 1 IV. D4 Highway section Devínska Nová Ves - border Slovakia/Austria in operation in 1/2 of the profile from August, 1, 2011. In the context of the mentioned facts, the purpose of the proposed action, in addition to improving conditions for international and domestic transit traffic, shall also be to increase the flow, speed and safety of all road users, with simultaneous reduction of the negative impact of the existing road transport on the environment, particularly in relation to the considerable environmental impact of the urban agglomeration and the region of "Great Bratislava." The proposed action will also help the traffic operation of the affected area as well as partially relieve the central part of Bratislava from transit traffic. 3. User The structure will be used by vehicle users. 4.

Brief Description of the Technical and Technological Solution The highway D4 section of Ivanka North -Záhorská Bystrica begins by a connection to the preceding section D4 Jarovce - Ivanka North at the interchange D4 - D1, ending at the interchange D4 - I/2 Záhorská Bystrica, which is already in operation within the completed and operating section D4 Záhorská Bystrica - Devínska Nová Ves in 1/2 of the profile. This section of the highway D4 is designed in following variants: variant 7 a - with elevated routing of the highway b - with subgrade highway routing c - with subgrade highway routing - variant 2 a - with elevated highway routing b - with subgrade highway routing - variant SPL - new corridor lead more northwards, compared to the proposed variants in the intention on the route Senec, Pezinok, Lozorno. 2 Brief technical and technological description of the construction - variants 2a, 2b, 7a, 7b, 7c The Feasibility Study considered building a multi-level crossing of the highways D4 and D1 under the existing embankment body of the highway D1, including a partial embedding of the highway D4 under the ground level, thus complying with the standard passage height. In this way, it is necessary to build the highway D4 in a sealed bathtub in the length of about 600 m because of the high ground water level. Such solution is related to the crossing of D4 and the relocation of the road I/61, which was designed above the D4 highway. Before the completion of works on the documentation of the zoning and planning decision (DZP), the Ministry of Transport, Construction and Regional Development of the Slovak Republic (hereinafter referred to as the MDVRR SR) changed the location of the I/61 road routing which remained on the ground level, while the highway D4 was supposed to be lead above the road I/61. The optional solution of the routing of the highway D4 at the interchange Ivanka North consists in a modification of the elevated routing of the highway D4, that is above the highway D1 (in order for the D4 to conveniently cross the road I/61 as well as the highway D1). Therefore, a modification of the vertical alignment from the 21.250 km up to 22.801 km of the section Jarovce - Ivanka North and from 0.000 km to 0.575 km of the section Ivanka North - Záhorská Bystrica (in variants 2a, 2b, 7a, 7b, 7c). The vertical alignment is designed routing by a bridge structure over the highway D1, in order to prevent the sealing bath construction under the ground water level, which would require demanding construction technology and disturb the flow and quality of the groundwater during the construction. Moreover, such a solution allows the highway D1 traffic to continue during the highway D4 construction, despite restrictions. In case of the highway D4 is going to be built under the D1 highway, the D1 would have to be completely closed. According to the source technical documentation (feasibility and effectiveness study), both variants of the elevated crossing of the highways D1 and D4 are designed so that the vertical alignment of the highway D4 remains without changes from 0.575 km on westwards. At this point, the variants 2 and 7, as well as their modifications, at the assessed highway D4 section begin. Such a solution provides variability of the vertical alignment of the D4 routing in both directions. At this point, the highway D4 may be routed in direction east to an underpass under the highway D1, or even to an overpass above the D1 and in direction west by surface routing (variants 2a, 7a, 7c), or by subgrade routing into the Vajnory tunnel (variant 2b, 7b). Therefore, it is possible to conclude that the beginning of the assessed section is located behind the Ivanka North interchange at 0.575 km. All the variants are designed with the intent to comply with the assessment scope requirements as much as possible (elevated and subgrade routing of the highway in the section around the Vajnory municipality and from the west portal up to the FOI Záhorská Bystrica). In case they locally fail to satisfy such a condition, it is due to the connection to the related section of the highway D4 Záhorská Bystrica - Devínska Nová Ves, which has already been in operation at half profile. The width arrangement of the highway D4 is designed in the category D 26.5/120, and 2T 8.0/80 in the Karpaty and Katušiná tunnels. Variant 2a – elevated routing of highway in the section around the Vajnory municipality and between Marianka and the Záhorská Bystrica municipality with the length of 16.840 km. The variant 2a begins at 0.575 km, where the vertical alignments of both variants of the Ivanka North interchange meet at the approx. 6 m high embankment. The highway route continues westwards on the embankment for a short distance, concurrent with the Šúrsky kanál at the distance of approx. 300 m from the north-east edge of the built-up area of the Vajnory municipality. The flyover interchange (FOI) Čierna voda is located at 1.263 km. At this point the highway crosses the road III/5021 (D4 over III/5021) by a bridge structure and an 8 m high embankment. 3 The highway continues concurrently with the Šúrsky kanál on a descending embankment further towards the eastern slopes of the Little Carpathians. At point 2.524 km the highway crosses Račiansky potok (Rača creek) by a bridge structure. At point 3.250 km the highway runs closely above the terrain level and continues on the embankment reaching the height of 5 m before the FOI Rača. At the FOI Rača, at point 4.124 km the highway crosses the railroad No.120 Bratislava - Žilina by a bridge, along with the road II/502 (D4 runs over the railway as well as the road II/502). In the section between the FOI Ivanka North and FOI Čierna voda, there are designed one-way two-lane collectors (concurrent roads) of category C 9.5/8 on both sides of the highway D4, to which the local roads will be connected. In the section between FOI Čierna voda and FOI Rača the one-way collector is proposed only for the southern part of D4 highway, through which the adjacent territory west of the Vajnory municipality can be connected (CEPIT premises).
