Corridor VIII has been assessed as a priority project by the Ministry of Infrastructure and Energy and the Albanian Road Authority. Currently, work is being done on the construction of the Elbasan - Qafë-Thane axis, which lies on a completely new track along the Shkumbin river.
During an interview for the Monitor Magazine, the head of the ARSHA, Evis Berberi, said that this axis will shorten the distances between neighboring border countries, will bring growth in the economy and trade, as well as increase road safety.
Barber revealed that the entire length of this axis has been finished and the project idea has been approved. The length of the road axis presented in the project is 30.8 km.
"Phase I starts at the exit of the city of Elbasan, in the village of Labinot-Fushë, and the physical realization of the works is at the rate of 42%.
The progress of the works is according to the work schedule. The road route has been fully opened. About 81% of the volumes for filling the road body along the entire segment have been completed.
The construction of the works of art has been completed to the extent of 95%. The river protection works continue, which have reached 72% of physical completion.
Phase II begins near the village of Mirakë and has a length of 3,860 km. The project also foresees secondary roads and the connection of the surrounding areas with the main axis. Even in this lot, the work on the construction site has started", said Berberi.
For phase III and IV, the competition is expected to open within the month of September.
Berberi has also revealed how much this project will cost. He states that phase I, with a length of 5,060 km, has a cost of 3 billion ALL, phase II with a length of 3.84 km, has a cost of 3 billion ALL and the remaining part, which will be divided into two phases, with a total length of 20.46 km and cost 44.7 billion ALL, within the month of September the competition will be opened.
As for the total value of the entire project, it is impossible to determine since there is a change in the project regarding the connection with the customs point for which it is cooperating with North Macedonia.
"The project for the construction of the Elbasan - Qafë-Thane axis is divided into four phases, where it is planned to build small and large works of art such as: four underpasses, three bypasses, an automobile bridge and a level crossing.
The new project, which meets all the parameters of a road with high standards and safety, starts at the exit of the city of Elbasan, in the village of Labinot-Fushë, while it ends at km 44 near the customs point of Qafë-Thanë.
Phase I, with a length of 5,060 km, has a cost of ALL 3 billion and, as I explained above, is under construction.
Phase II, with a length of 3.84 km, has a cost of ALL 3 billion and work has just started on the site.
For the remaining part, which will be divided into two phases, with a total length of 20.46 km and a cost of ALL 44.7 billion, the competition will be opened in September.
As for the total value of the entire project, today it is impossible to say since there is a change in the project in terms of the connection with the customs point and for which we are cooperating closely with the North Macedonian side", said Berberi . / CNA
