February 21 (SeeNews) - China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC) started the construction of a 24-km sewerage network in Serbia's eastern Kucevo municipality as part of a project worth 11.2 million euro ($12.72 million), the infrastructure ministry said.
The works should be mostly completed in the next 12 to 18 months, infrastructure minister Tomislav Momirovic said, as quoted in a statement issued by the ministry on Friday.
The project's subsequent phases will entail the construction of two wastewater treatment plants, Momirovic explained.
In August 2021, the Serbian government awarded CRBC a contract to build 26 wastewater treatment plants and approximately 700 km of sewerage network in 14 municipalities.
