A motorway vignette is again required on the R1 section between Zvolen and Banská Bystrica
Due to the emergency situation in the vicinity of Sliač, the R1 motorway section between Zvolen and Banská Bystrica was temporarily exempted from tolls on Wednesday, November 26. From the first minutes of today, the R1 section is again subject to tolls.
The National Motorway Company advises motorists who wish to use this section of the R1 from Thursday, November 27, to drive with a valid vignette. If they have already used the section today, they can purchase a motorway vignette during the course of today until midnight. This will allow them to avoid the risk of a fine. The National Motorway Company is not interested in penalizing motorists; on the contrary, it wants to minimize the number of trips without a vignette.
The National Motorway Company also warn that a motorway vignette is also required on the newly opened section of the R2 Kriváň – Mýtna.
