Via Lietuva is managing several infrastructure projects involving the installation and renovation of pedestrian and bicycle paths across Lithuania. 

One specific project involves a path between Kretinga and Vydmantai along the A11 highway, which faced delays after a 330-meter section subsided by as much as 82 cm due to geological conditions such as peat and sapropel soil. Following new studies, construction has resumed using reinforced concrete piles to stabilize the structure, with completion expected by the end of the year.

More broadly, Via Lietuva plans to complete or renovate approximately 55 km of paths this year, a 50 percent increase over the previous year. These projects, valued at over 33.8 million euros, include work in the Šakiai district and are supported in part by the European Regional Development Fund. The company has indicated plans for nearly 500 km of new tracks in the future.
