Updated On 18 June At 3 pm:  Traffic Changes In Budapest Due To Danube Flooding
The sections of the lower Pest embankment between Lánchíd (Chain Bridge) and Közraktár utca as well as between Dráva utca and Jászai Mari tér are reopened from 22:00 on 17 June 2013, thus only the section between Jászai Mari tér and Lánchíd remains closed during the construction carried out at the underground car park of the Parliament.

Simultaneously with the reopening of the above sections, the temporary bus lane on Hegyalja út will be suspended and Frankel Leó utca will be reopened to traffic.

On Budafoki út the section between Karinthy Frigyes út and Bertalan Lajos utca in the direction of the city centre will be open only to public transport vehicles from 18 June 2013 due to construction however in the outer direction, as before, there are no restrictions.

However we recommend motorists avoid this section also in the outer direction. Restrictions on the other parts of Budafoki út will be suspended.

Refreshed map

Tram 2 continues to run on a shortened route between Közvágóhíd H and Eötvös tér and the original transport order applies (during peak hours certain trams run to Március 15. tér). Replacement buses continue to run between Nyugati pályaudvar M and Széchenyi István tér.
