D48 is a state road connecting the city of Pazin with D21 and D302 state roads near Baderna, the latter serving as a connecting road to A9/B9 expressway.[1]
The D48 road thus serves as a connection between the two arms of Istrian Y and towns in the centre of Istria peninsula, including Pazin, Baderna and Žminj. The road is 19.1 km (11.9 mi) long.[2]
The road, as well as all other state roads in Croatia, is managed and maintained by Hrvatske ceste, a state-owned company.[3]
Traffic volume
Traffic is regularly counted and reported by Hrvatske ceste, operator of the road.[4] Substantial variations between annual (AADT) and summer (ASDT) traffic volumes are attributed to the fact that the road connects two arms of Istrian Y carrying substantial tourist traffic.
