Reconstruction of II/502 roadway and new Bratislavská–Drevárska–Komenského traffic light intersection construction in 2024

In autumn 2018, the footpath from Bernolákova to Fándlyho Street was reconstructed.[5] During November 2022, the roadway of the street from the Bratislavská–Drevárska–Komenského intersection to the bridge was reconstructed[6] and created a temporary light intersection. In early June 2024, the road on the bridge was reconstructed as part of the 1st stage and from family houses no. 61 and 70 to Jesenského Street as part of the 2nd stage within the road II/502 reconstruction by Bratislava Self-Governing Region (Slovak: Bratislavský samosprávny kraj). Since early July, a new traffic light intersection Bratislavská–Drevárska–Komenského is being built as part of the 5th stage, including construction of new road edges, construction of drains, transshipment of networks, asphalting from houses no. 61 and 70 up to house no. 100 and realization of the intersection island.[7]

In September 2003, a papal motorcade with Pope John Paul II passed through the street.[8]
