Croatia has issued a permit for construction of a bridge over the Sava River by Bosanska Gradiska and the border with Bosnia e Herzegovina.

Croatia is working closely with the Bosnian motorways company Autoputevi on the bridge, according to Croatian media reports.

The bridge is likely to cost around €23.5 million as noted by a bid submitted by the consortium made up of Duro Dakovic Montaza, Zagreb Montaza and Integral Inzinjering.

Croatia is to pay €70 million as its share for a bridge across the River Sava near Gradiska, in Republika Srpska, part of Bosnia-Herzegovina.

A year ago, the 2465 European Commission set aside a €6.8 million grant for construction of the bridge.
