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. The planned 77km route will go from Nis via Merosina, Prokuplje and Kursumlija to Merdare and continue to Pristina.
The cost will likely top €800 million but contribute to the economic development of Serbia’s Toplica District that borders Kosovo.
