BiH Minister of Communications and Transport, Vojin Mitrović, met today in Sarajevo with the Head of the EU Delegation and Special EU Representative in BiH, Ambassador Johann Sattler.

In an open discussion they both emphasised the need to continue with the construction of the motorway network in Bosnia and Herzegovina which would contribute to the development of BiH economy, significant increase in transport of goods and services and connecting, through BiH, the EU member states and the countries of the region with the sea and ports.  

Ambassador Sattler stressed the need to accelerate the construction of the Corridor 5C motorway, expressing the expectation that the Svilaj Bridge and the border crossing would be opened in April or May this year.

Thanking for the huge support and funds provided by the EU for the construction of modern road infrastructure in BiH, as well as for other projects aimed at connecting BiH with other countries in the region and the EU, Minister Mitrović also noted on the importance of the construction of the Sarajevo-Belgrade motorway and connecting it to the Corridor Vc motorway.
