The Mrke tunnel to be bored in 10 days – exclusive aerial footage
Not only is the Chinese company working hard when it comes to the most important infrastructure project in Montenegro. Montenegrin companies are investing great effort round the clock to complete the first section from Smokovac to Matesevo within two years.
CdM learns that the Bemax company will complete boring work on the Mrke tunnel – more than 800 metres long – in 10 days, and all tunnels on the section will be bored by summer.
At the Bar-Boljare section currently constructed by the Chinese contractor as many as 42 tunnels and 92 bridges and viaduct are planned. As earlier announced, the section will cost €809.6m.
On Wednesday, Bemax started pouring concrete for the first slab of one of the section’s 45 bridges, the Mrke bridge. Mrke is to be 300 metres long and 35 metres high.
Tunnelling of the Jabucki Krs and Klopot has been finished, as well as one tube of the Vilac tunnel.
To date, 37% of the work on all bridges has been carried out, and 60% boring on all tunnels has been completed.
