History Renovation of the former Hárosi Danube Bridge (2018–2020) The northern bridge, built between 1987 and 1990, has had problems during use.

As part of the renovation of the affected section of the M0, the bridge was also renovated, which was opened to traffic in May 2020, but shortly afterwards it was closed again with half-track diversions, but neither the contractor Strabag Zrt. nor the client Nemzeti Infrastruktúra-fejlesztő Zrt. commented on the reasons for the repeated closure.
