The second section of the Skopje-Blace highway is expected to enter the construction phase at the end of this month, Prime Minister Hristijan Mickoski announced.

According to him, work is scheduled to begin on August 26, as all the necessary conditions for the project’s implementation have now been met.

Mickoski said construction would officially begin this month and that all formalities and procedures concerning the Albanian section of the Blace-Skopje route had been completed. He said that, as far as he could recall, the start had been set for August 26, but cautioned against treating that date as definitive. The prime minister added that the decade-old project, announced long ago, finally has a contractor—a domestic company—as well as supervision, and therefore assessed that every condition for the start of highway construction had been met.

Meanwhile, work is currently underway at 1,200 locations across Macedonia, Mickoski noted. He also announced that construction of the Bukojchani-Kichevo segment is expected to begin in September, while he said work on the Kichevo-Ohrid highway would be intensified and the highway completed gradually.
