The bulldozers ordered by the Ministry of Transportation and Post-Telecommunication have started work to level all the spaces on the way of the Prishtina-Lipjan highway. All the businesses that have been built along the stretch of the road in question have been taken over, and none of the owners have complained, except two or three of them. But when the Minister of Transportation, Fatmir Limaj showed up they left.
Limaj along with his cabinet and the managers of the construction companies have overseen the terrain where the work is taking place for the expansion of the highway, which is due by the beginning of July. After the expansion of this highway it will continue from Lipjan to Han i Elezit near the border crossing with Macedonia. The entire project will cost five million Euros. “Today, MTPT is starting the work season with investments, both on the highways and regional roads, or even the roads that already exist in co-investment with the municipalities”, stated Minister Limaj.
Limaj promised that under his leadership of the ministry there will be an increased intensity of these projects with a “quality not seen so far.” The demolition of these spaces Limaj considers is in the interest of the citizens of Kosovo in general. He also added that MTPT has done all the preparations for the re-layering of all other highways in Kosovo with work on that to start very soon. “I promise that there will be quality and dynamism very different from that shown so far,” stated Limaj. The construction companies have also promised that they will perform all the work in time and in the manner that has been contracted.
The minister of transport acknowledged that there have been requests for the work to continue at night, so that the citizens will not face obstacles to their traffic. “The people that have taken over these project will answer if there will be any mistake in the expansion and fixing of these roads. I call on all citizens to try or that have taken the public spaces to leave this land, because this is a public property, and this land has the right owner which is the state of Kosovo,” said Limaj. The managers of the construction companies have spoken about small incidents with the owners of these businesses, whose space has been taken from them. But overall they are still very happy with the progress the work is going.

... The infrastructure is the corner stone to insure the progress and development for a society. I have no doubt that in no more than two years, Kosova not only will be a much better place to live, but will show to the world what Kosovars are capable to accomplish. |
