In Serbia plans are moving forward for the Corridor 11 highway. The contract for the 48km of highway looks set to be carried out under a concession model by Chinese companies. The deal will also involve the 103km Obrenovac-Preljina highway. The cost of the Corridor 11 highway project has not yet been disclosed. A decision has yet to be made regarding the Horgos-Belgrade-Pozega highway. Part of this route was to be built under a concession awarded to 2859 Alpine and 3976 PORR and this deal included work on some 250km of highways in all, as well as use and maintenance work for the Novi Sad-Belgrade highway. However with the collapse of the Austrian firm Alpine, the contract will now have to be renegotiated. It is not clear if Porr will be able to find another suitable partner to take Alpine’s place so as to be able to take over the package or whether the tender process will have to be opened again.
