October 15 (SeeNews) - China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC) will complete the construction of the first stretch of the Bar-Boljare motorway in Montenegro by the end of 2019, the chief supervisor of the project, Jovan Ivanovic, has said.
The original May 2019 deadline set for the completion of the Podgorica-Matesevo section was unrealistic, Ivanovic said in a video file posted on the website of Montenegrin public broadcaster RTCG on Sunday.
The construction of the Moracica bridge, part of the Podgorica-Matesevo section, is expected to be completed by August 2019, he added.
The Bar-Boljare motorway is part of pan-European Corridor XI, a ferry/motorway corridor linking Italy's Bari to Romania's Bucharest via Montenegro's Bar port and Serbia's Belgrade.
