Azerbaijani interested in building Kadinjaca tunnel?

A delegation of the Azerbaijani company AzVirt visited the municipality of Bajina Basta on Wednesday, July 4, and the talks with the municipality's president, Radomir Filipovic, focused on the construction of the Kadinjaca tunnel, drina.info reports.

The aim of the visit of the Executive Director of AzVirt in Belgrade, Murat Turkoglu, was for him to get to know the municipality of Bajina Basta and the new planned projects, primarily the project of the tunnel beneath Kadinjaca, which is of crucial importance for the transport in this part of Serbia.

Filipovic reminded that it was agreed during the visit of the president of Serbia to Azerbaijan for companies from this country to continue building infrastructure in Serbia.

– To that end, we've invited AzVirt to see that the municipality of Bajina Basta is one of the rare ones to make a lot of progress in preparing the project documentation at this point – Filipovic said and added that this would open the entire Podrinje region to central Serbia and then further as well, across the new bridge, to Bosnia and Herzegovina.

According to him, the tunnel is the main development opportunity for this region and, together with the planned highway to Sarajevo, a whole new perspective for the development of Podrinje, both as a travel destination and economically.

Turkoglu stated that he was very pleasantly surprised with this region that he had not known well before.

– The planned investment would open this region and enable numerous tourists from Serbia and abroad to get to know these hidden beauties and allow people in this area to benefit from tourism and agriculture – Turkoglu stated for drina.info.
