In Serbia work on the Corridor 10 highway looks set to be completed as planned in 2016. Serbian roads company, 3235 Koridori Srbije, says that that the Corridor 10 motorway should be completed by the middle of 2016. The 2332 World Bank (WB) mission visited building sites on Corridor 10 and said that considerable progress has been made, with an additional 23% of works having been carried out in the last 18 month period. In 2014 alone, 50km of the route will be completed. Work is being carried out on 238 bridges, out of which 144 are expected to be completed in 2014 and the remainder in 2015. Meanwhile, a tender has been called for the Dimitrovgrad ringroad, which is due to be completed by 25th April 2014. Previously, Koridori Srbije signed works worth €59.3 million with the Austrian company 2859 Alpine. However, the deal was cancelled after Alpine hit major financial problems. In addition, work on Serbia’s Corridor 11 is being carried out faster than originally planned. Preparations for the contracts covering the Obranovac-Surcin and Pozega-Preljina sections are being made at present. The tender process is expected to open within six weeks. The value of the two highway sections has not been revealed at this stage.
