TIRANA, Aug 6 /ATA/ The works on Arbri road are rapidly progressing while its construction will significantly shorten the existing road from Tirana to Diber 180 km long with an impact on development of the surrounding areas.
PM Edi Rama shared on Thursday views of this road where one can enjoy the quality of the project designed to harmonize it with nature as much as possible.
“Good morning and with this view of Arbri Road, where you can enjoy the quality of a project designed to harmonize as much as possible with nature the deep intervention across a breathtaking natural landscape, I wish you all a good day, and especially some friends here who, I do not know why, but when they see the investments in the south, complain about under-investments in the north, ” Rama said.
The works on the Vasha Bridge, considered to be one of the highest bridges in the region, started at 150 meters above the level, have completed. This bridge consists of concrete foundations and arched metallic structure.

Arbri Road consists of 7 tunnels with a total length of 8.5 km with 40% of the works completed so far in tunnel 1, 98% of the works completed in tunnels 2, 3, 4 and 6, while the works in tunnel 5 are over.
The construction of Arbri Road, about 74 km long, will become an important corridor for East-West connectivity.
Arbri Road will not only cut the distance with Dibra and North Macedonia for citizens of Tirana and entire Albania but will be an artery of economic development and tourism.
Arbri Road is a complex engineering work, which will become a reality after many of years of delays and promises.
This road connects the eastern and northeastern regions of Albania to improve the transport of inhabitants living in the areas where the road passes, as well as ease transport of minerals, such as chromium, from Bulqiza to the port of Durres, which is then exported.
Also, this axis will be the shortest road connecting Tirana with Dibra, as well as with the north of Macedonia, Dibra e Madhe, Tetovo and Skopje, so it will be an international road.
