Serbia will cooperate with Albania on construction of the proposed Nis-Merdare-Prishtina motorway, according to media reports.

Serbian vice president and Minister of Construction, Transport and Infrastructure, Zorana Mihajlovic, said that the motorway will be part of a larger project to give faster access, through Pristina, capital of Kosovo, to Albania’s Adriatic Sea port of Drac.

In September, Mihajlovic said that design work for the Nis-Merdare-Prishtina motorway should be finished in the first half of 2017 with completion of the highway set for 2020.

Around 600 contractors are working in Serbia building 250km of motorways, including work on more than 70km between Leskovac and the Macedonian border and around 100km between Belgrade and Preljina.
