Thousands of bikers are expected to take part in the Harley-Davidson jubilee festival in Budapest on June 22-25.

Apart from the noise, authorities are warning that there will be increased motor traffic on the M0 and M2 highways, and on all major roads leading in and out of Budapest, as well as on the public roads of the Danube Bend and the Pilis Mountains.

As part of the festival, guided tours are organized from Budapest to several parts of the country, including the Balaton highlands, the Alföld, Eger, the Cserhát Mountains, Dobogókő, the Vértes Mountains and the Danube Bend.

Due to the motorcycle festival, the Szabadság and Margit bridges will be temporarily closed on Saturday.

In addition, closures are to be expected on Dózsa György út, Rákóczi út, Múzeum and Vámház körút, as well as Teréz and Szent István út, and Hermina út and Stefánia út.
