ZAGREB, July 1, 2020 – Contracts for the start of a 105.5 million kuna project to construct a Novi Marof east bypass road were signed in that northwestern Croatian town on Wednesday.
The contracts were signed by the Croatian state-run road operator (HC) director, Josip Skoric, and senior executives of the companies that will build the road.
Novi Marof Mayor Sinisa Jenkac said at the ceremony that local inhabitants had been waiting for this project since 1987 when the decision on the east bypass road had been made. The infrastructure will defuse traffic jams in the center of the city.
The project includes the construction of a 4.5 -kilometer-long road, two bridges across the River Bednja, six crossroads and interchanges, and other facilities.
