Montenegro is currently implementing 13 infrastructure projects with an estimated value of €150 million, according to Miroslav Mašić, acting Director General of the Directorate for State Roads.
Speaking to Radio Montenegro, Mašić highlighted major ongoing works, including the reconstruction and construction of the Tivat–Jaz boulevard, the Bar–Kamenički Most–Krute road, the new road from the Veruše interchange to the Veruše settlement, and the Jasenovo Polje–Zaborje route on the Nikšić–Plužine corridor. Other projects include roadworks in Rožaje, a 40-kilometer reconstruction from Berane through Ribarevine to Lepenac, and the rehabilitation of Đurđevića Tara Bridge.
The most technically complex challenge is the Sokolovina landslide on the Mojkovac–Đurđevića Tara route, expected to be completed by the end of 2025.
Mašić also confirmed that ten global companies have expressed interest in constructing the second section of the highway from Mateševo to Andrijevica. Fourteen companies applied for the supervision contract, with half shortlisted. Contracts are expected to be signed by September, and construction could begin later this year with a five-year completion target.
Montenegro’s Spatial Plan outlines a 585-kilometer network of highways and express roads. Over the past year, work has focused on developing technical documentation and conceptual designs.
The Tivat–Jaz boulevard is currently the most congested road in Montenegro, handling an average of 20,000 vehicles daily—double during peak tourist season. It is expected to be completed before the 2026 summer season.
Additionally, post-summer plans include the reconstruction of the Bijelo Polje–Serbia border road and the Petnjica–Bioče section, along with works on about ten other road segments following tender finalizations.
