-Last year, we have had very low
progress of activities on this road
we have inherited many problems
including the ones related to
the design of the tunnel,
expropriation and
archaeological sites.
Nevertheless, by continuously
working with the director
we have overcome all issues
and at this moment
the construction of this road
has been significantly accelerated.
I would also like to emphasize
that folowing the re-design
is being done at the moment
and is also in the final stage,
so we expect to sign the addendum
of the contract as soon as possible
all with the purpose of
acceleration of programme of works
in the following period.
I would also like to emphasize
that at the same time,
a third section from Prilep to
Leniski bridge will be constructed
as well as the section from
village Belovodnica to the quarry
in length of approximately 7.5 km.
We consider that this will solve
this problem to a great extent
and in accordance with the deadline
which is approximately 2 years,
the finalization and reconstruction
of this extremely important
express road will be complete
which is very important
not only for Prilep
but for the Pelagonia region
in general.
Emphasizing this, I would like
to mention another project
that is connected
to this express road,
and that is the design
or tender for design
which will be announced
in the Public Enterprise.
That is the solution for a highway
which is being prepared
for the route
from Prilep to Bitola,
as well as express road
from Bitola to Medzitlija,
i.e. border crossing with Greece.
With all of this, we consider
that for this Pelagonia region with
approximately 300,000 inhabitants,
we will make important,
safe and fast roads
that will represent
an important benefit
for the citizens of this region.
-Three archaeological sites
have appeared,
while there is continuous
work on the site,
and as you know, when this happens,
the works are being stopped.
There were also some
unsolved expropriations,
but we solved them in collaboration
with the Municipality of Kavadarci,
and they were related
to structures on the road tself
so there was no possibility
to perform the works.
However, there were also
other issues related to works
on 11 double bridges, so to say.
What does it mean, double?
This part of the road can be
considered as some kind of highway
relating to the bridges, and
the rest of it is an express road.
At a given moment,
if the need arises,
it can easily
be converted to a highway.
But there was no geomechanical
testing performed for
these bridges, so when we realized
that this was necessary
and needs to be done last spring,
the PE for State Roads
organized the performance
of new geomechanical testings
in order to perform
the construction works correctly.
More than 80 geomechanical
testings have been done,
as well as re-design
of the part of the route
because some of the works
were unnecessary,
and there is an ongoing revision
by the Faculty of Civil Engineering
expected to be finished next week,
so the construction of this road
could continue at maximum speed.
This road represents a part of
a whole which we have started.
Three months ago we have started
with the road Gradsko-Drenovo,
meaning all the way from
Corridor X, Gradsko-Drenovo,
all the way to Prilep and the third
phase, mentioned by the Minister,
and we will not stop there,
we will continue through Pelagonia.
The tender for Bitola Ring-road
expressway is ongoing,
also the one
for expressway to Medzitlija
and we are finishing
the bill of quantities
and this fall we will publish
a tender for highway Prilep-Bitola.
along with Resen Ring-road,
so this whole region
will be better connected.
Modern roads are being constructed
so that the frequency in this part
of the state could be safer.
We are witnessing how many traffic
accidents there are on this route
and how big of a problem
that has been in the past.
-There were subjective
and objective reasons
causing the tempo of the works
to be as it is.
Three archaeological sites
have appeared on the site
during the performance of works,
and they were not included
in design documentation
nor documentation
for the performance of works.
They encompassed
a big part of the route.
Two of them are solved and
one archaeological site remained,
where presently
the Conservation Center from Skopje
is present on site
doing excavations.
This site is located near us.
In addition, there were some
structures for expropriation
which were solved so the Contractor
has accelerated the pace
and the works are being performed
a little bit faster.
