A public-private partnership on the horizon: The Chinese company is to construct the highway to Andrijevica and the Verige bridge!

The Chinese company does not want to construct just 40km of the first Bar-Boljare highway section running from Smokovac to Matesevo. They are willing to construct the highway part running to Andrijevica. And not only that.
“I hope that we will build the section running from Matesevo to Andrijevica, as well as the Verige bridge”, the CEO of the Chinese construction company CCCC Lee Qingwei said at the press conference after visiting the site with Prime Minister Milo Djukanovic.
The prime minister says that the government wants construction of the highway section Matesevo-Andrijevica to start as soon as possible.
“It is interesting that the Chinese company is now offering to implement the construct project in a private-public partnership”, the PM confirmed.

CDM on the construction site: What do we know about the Moracica bridge and the Vjeternik tunnel?
The works on the Moracica Bridge and Vjeternik tunnel – two the most challenging structures on the first highway section – are being carried out in three shifts, ie 24/7.
Prime Minister Milo Djukanovic, Transport Minister Ivan Brajovic and the CEO of the CCCC Chinese construction company Lee Qingwei, the daughter company of which is constructing the highway first section, have visited the site today.
The Vjeternik tunnel is one of 16 tunnels to be constructed. For the time being, the Chinese company has drilled 52.5m out of about 3km total tunnel length. The tunnel is being built at an altitude of about 880m meters above sea level.
On the other hand, the Moracica bridge is to be 980m long.
The first highway section is to be completed in May 2019.
Construction of 40km of the highway will cost €809m.
“Currently 1,200 workers have been engaged on the highway construction. One third of the workers are from Montenegro. With regard to the total investment, over €250m will remain in Montenegro”, Djukanovic said.
