The Croatian Government is prioritising infrastructure spending in a bid to improve transport connections throughout the whole country. Key projects under the spotlight include the construction of the Peljeski Bridge as well as the necessary access roads. This bridge will provide an improved connection between the south and north of the country although the project value has not been released. Another major project is for the new Adriatic-Jonska highway, which will now pass through Trebinje and Pocitelj, rather than Neum and Dubrovnik as previously planned. This route will be a continuation of A1 highway towards Albania and Montenegro. The value of this project has also not been revealed.
