According to a 2009 treaty between the Czech Republic and Austria, it is to be completed as motorway and continuous connection between Brno and the Austrian A5 North AutobahnatDrasenhofen, leading to Vienna.^[2] Within the agglomeration of Brno plans for a new route intend to relocate the D52 running from the Rajhrad junction northwestwards bypassing the city centre to reach the Highway D1 and the Expressway R43atTroubsko.^[3]
