Geological explorations for tunnel beneath Kadinjaca close to completion – Construction planned to start in 2020

The geological explorations preceding the construction of a tunnel beneath the Kadinjaca pass are close to being completed, and, according to Ivan Markovic, the coordinator of the project on behalf of the Municipality of Bajina Basta, they are expected to be completed by the end of March.

– The documentation for the preparation of a preliminary design of the tunnel is being prepared, and the tender documentation says that the project must be completed by June, when the detailed regulation plan should be completed as well – Markovic says, as reported by the local media.

He adds that he hopes that the construction of the tunnel will start in 2020.

– This year, we will submit the preliminary design, along with the results of the geological explorations to the reviewing commission, following which we will define the public interest based on this project and the DRP and start the process of expropriation – Markovic says.

This is all expected to be completed by mid-2019, when the route is also expected to be defined and the property relations resolved, after which negotiations with potential investors should start.
