Albania expands Kombinat-Plepa road construction project
Albanian Minister of Infrastructure and Energy, Enea Karakaçi, announced progress on the Kombinat-Ndroq-Plepa road axis. The first 5-kilometer segment leading to Pezë has been completed and handed over to the Albanian Road Authority (ARRSH).
Contracts have been signed for the next 9 kilometers of construction. Additionally, funding has been secured for the final 10-kilometer stretch leading to Plepa, Durrës. The competitive bidding process for this final segment is expected to open by mid-November.
The new road is intended to serve as a vital alternative route between Tirana and Durrës, helping to alleviate traffic, particularly during the tourist season. The project is also expected to improve access to agricultural areas and stimulate economic development and property values in the region.
