As noted in the meeting, it will be known by the end of this year which of the five offered routes will be chosen for the construction of the future Adriatic-Ionian motorway that partly passes through Republika Srpska and the territory of the Trebinje city.

Minister Mitrović informed those present about the arrangement reached that a route should be agreed upon by end of 2020, for which the approval of the Federation of BiH, the Republic of Croatia and Montenegro is needed, in addition to the approval of Republika Srpska.

“I believe that an agreement can be reached. Respectively, the Federation of BiH and Republika Srspka will finance their part of the route. The precondition for its financing is primarily to agree on the future route” said Mitrović.  

Mayor Ćurić said that the City of Trebinje, as well as other local communities in Hercegovina, will provide their opinion and the proposals of the best route that, with the new motorway, should connect our country with Croatia and Italy, Montenegro, Albania and Greece, adding that offered sections pass through Popovo polje, the hills of Trebinje and Zubac.     

The Adriatic-Ionian motorway through Bosnia and Herzegovina begins in Počitelj and ends in Aranđelovo near Trebinje on the border with Montenegro.

The planning and project documentation envisages the total length of 110 kilometres of the motorway through the Federation of BiH and Republika Srpska.

The Adriatic-Ionian motorway is part of the same corridor that is about 1,110 kilometres long stretching through seven countries – Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Albania, ending in the Igoumenitsa Port in Greece.
