Median strip and emergency bands on the A1 near Morges are being removed to widen the road to six lanes

Morges, Vaud, Switzerland (GenevaLunch) – The roadworks to enlarge the A1 autoroute between Morges and Lausanne are on schedule, with no major incidents to report during the major holiday departures at the start of July, says the Swiss Highways Office in its latest update on the project’s progress.

The work to build three emergency stops areas on the Jura side of the road (direction: Lausanne-Geneva) will be completed by August, and cables have now been laid for the automatic traffic data and alerts.

The Jura side of the road will be blacktopped in August, on schedule, allowing that side of the road to handle two-way traffic and the roadworks to shift to the lake side before the end of the summer holiday period.

The widening of the road is scheduled to be completed by December 2009.
