Main road 43 (Hungary)

Main road 43 (Hungarian: 43-as főút) is a Hungarian main road that connects Szeged with the Romanian border at Nagylak. It serves as a crucial link between Hungary and Romania, facilitating both passenger and freight transport. The road runs in a generally southeast direction from Szeged. It is part of European route E68.

The route passes through several settlements, including Makó, known for its onion production, and other smaller towns and villages in the Southern Great Plain region. It plays a significant role in the economic activity of these areas, providing access to larger markets and connecting them to the wider national and international road network.

The road has been subject to upgrades and improvements over the years to accommodate increasing traffic volumes and to meet modern road safety standards. The quality and maintenance of the road are important considerations for both domestic and international travelers. Plans for further development are sometimes discussed to further improve connectivity and reduce travel times.
