The 2030 urban development concept could bring major changes for Budapest’s buildings and public transport, MÁV CEO Róbert Homolya told the Budapest 2030 conference on Wednesday.

In the next decade the suburban railway line H7 could be extended via a tunnel to Kálvin tér and many other development projects are also planned, he said.

Other projects will include construction of a southern railway bridge, a direct rail link between Liszt Ferenc International Airport and downtown Budapest, and a Budapest-Belgrade railway line project, Homolya added.
