Basic Project Information
Contractual Framework
(e.g. fixed price, cost-plus etc.)
The project has during its project cycle several prices, expected price in
initiation phase, estimated value of the investor on the beginning of
public procurement, next contract price and definitively price.
Contract price is fixed price, but over run costs are to 20 %.
Difference between expected price and estimated value is 20 – 30 % due
to changes in legislation, inflation and increase of prices of lands.
Relevant Physical
Dimensions (e.g. height, width,
volume, length)
N-W sector: length 5,065 km, 4 interchange, 3 tunnels (1 of them for
tram);
N-E sector: length 5,05 km, 7 interchange, 1 intersection, 2 tunnels, 1
flyover;
S-E sector: length 8,265 km, 12 interchange, 1 tunnel, 2 flyovers;
S-W sector: length 4,31 km, 4 interchange, 2 tunnels, 1 flyover;
SECTION 1 - BASIC PROJECT INFORMATION
Big City Road Circuit Brno (BCRCB)
• Idea of the realization prepared since 1947.
• Real realization started in 1998 and estimated finish of all realization activities is
2035.
• Long-term priority in the road network of the Czech Republic.
• Whole route of BCRCB is the best solution from aspect of
– protection of environment
– population's living conditions
• BCCB involves many expensive technical solutions including tunnels.
• From economic, transport and administrative reasons it is not possible to build
the big city circuit in one stage.
• The whole route of circuit is divided into individual sections, which partial
opening allows use of all parts already constructed.
