The Predajane Tunnel is 1.1km long, again with twin tubes and in its case, these run from 35-65m apart. A Bulgarian contractor, Consortium Alliance X, is building the Manajle Tunnel, with the work valued at around €36 million. The construction work is being carried out to build 74km of the Corridor 10 highway between Grdelica – Vladicin Han in the south of the country. In all the Corridor 10 project is benefiting from EU funding worth some €2.443 billion.
