Actually this old stretch is just a national road (with 90kph speed limit) and it should be upgraded to expressway standards in the future - see the width between the pillars. The directions even weren't physically divided at all in the past.Great photos , i think your highways need shoulders

Chris:
I don't know anything about Hungarian motorways. The Polish progress is definitely noticeable, that EURO 2012 thing might be involved. Construction in Slovakia now should really move forward with the PPP projects.
And for us... I don't dare making any comparisons, so I've just made some charts. They might not be perfectly accurate, but they give the overall image. 2009 and 2010 data are estimates.

So it seems that now we're in a stronger phase of construction. Three peeks can be clearly seen - end of 1970s, when D1 Prague-Brno was opened, 1997 with opening of D5 from Plzeň to Germany and 2006 - the D11.

Yup, but isn't Poland 'a bit' bigger country?
UB in SerbiaThere aren't many 2-lettered towns out there. I only know of Aš (CZ), 2× Au (A, CH), Ig (SLO) and... Oš (Kyrgyzstan).
D1 southwest of Ostrava will open 25-11-2009

Impressive photos.
I don't want to sound ignorant but what are these for? They look like random pieces of a tunnel scattered in random places on the road!
