Fier – Vlorë – Darzezë road, under reconstruction - 1.52 million euro contract signed, EBRD: It affects the development of adventure tourism
The road segment from the Sop roundabout to the Darzeza Bridge will undergo reconstruction, with the aim of improving accessibility and adventure tourism infrastructure. The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development has announced the signing of a contract worth 1.52 million euros, with the works to be implemented by the Salillari company.
The road is located in the Seman area and begins at the intersection with the Fier - Vlora National Road, Apollonia district, continues along the Hoxharë road segment and ends at the new Darzeza Bridge.
During the opening of the tender procedure, the EBRD described the existing road as being in very poor condition due to the fact that no investment has been made in recent decades. “The road to be rehabilitated is paved with gravel and has large potholes. It is noted that along its entire length it is accompanied by a large drainage channel on the left side. The width of the existing road varies from 3 to 6 m,” the tender documents stated, among other things.
"The purpose of the investment is to improve access and connection of the Fier - Vlora national road with the coastal area of Darzeza, as one of the main tourist sites of the Fier Municipality," it was further added.
The interventions on this road axis are part of the Infrastructure and Tourism Project in Albania, which is financed by the European Union through technical assistance and investment grants totaling 40 million euros, as well as by the EBRD's complementary sovereign loan to the Albanian government. The project is implemented by the Albanian Development Fund.
