Project description and objectives:
|
The Ministry of Public Works, Transport and Telecommunications has applied for
a loan from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (the Bank)
and the European Investment Bank (EIB), and intends using its proceeds for the
rehabilitation and construction of the road section Levan - Vlore, part of the
North–South Road Corridor of Albania and Trans-European Corridor VIII. The
project will be implemented by the General Roads Directorate.
The works comprise the construction of a new road section from Levan (19 km
south of the city of Fier) to the city of Vlore. The total length of this
section is 24 km and it is expected to be constructed as a 4-lane road.
This is a key road corridor leading to the Port of Vlore, which will
facilitate regional integration and promote economic growth by reducing
transport costs, increasing access and improving road safety. It is
anticipated that the proposed project will continue to provide support to the
road sector in Albania, through the introduction of performance-based
maintenance contracts for state roads, with the aim of increasing
effectiveness and lowering the costs of road maintenance. This transition
impact builds on the enhancement of road financing arrangements through
increased allocation of revenues to the road sector and restructuring of road
sector operations to improve efficiency.
