Serbian Prime Minister of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic opened to traffic a 5.6-kilometer Corridor 10 motorway stretch from Grabovnica near Leskovac to Grdelica on Monday, saying on the occasion that the works on a motorway from the Macedonian border and Presevo to Subotica or to Sid will be completed by this time next year.
Vucic said that at any one time, there had been 400 workers on the job, and a total of 49 subcontractors from Serbia had been hired to complete the works on the Grabovnica-Grdelica section, located on the southern arm of Corridor 10.
The works, financed by the World Bank, were completed a month and a half earlier, the deadline for their completion being May 31.
Terna, the Greek contractor for the works, and local contractors also built a 26.3-kilometers-long section from Vladicin Han to Donji Neradovac near Vranje, which was opened to traffic in the presence of Prime Minister Vucic in November 2015.
The project, including both sections, was worth about EUR 100 million.
Also attending today’s ceremony were Vice Chairman of the Board of Terna Energy SA Georgios Perdikaris, Corridors of Serbia Director Dmitar Djurovic, Serbian Minister of Transport Zorana Mihajlovic.
