Speaking at the “Albania, A New Frontier” conference held in Vienna, Austria, with the participation of business representatives from over 25 countries, the government head put emphasis on the ongoing and planned investments in road infrastructure.

“We are undertaking several major infrastructure projects, particularly in road construction, which are open to private sector involvement and toll-based partnerships,” Rama said. “We are currently developing a number of additional projects that may be of interest to foreign investors.”

He noted Albania’s strategic geographic position as a factor driving increased mobility and tourism, which he said would make road infrastructure a vital area of development.

“With growing European tourism and greater mobility overall, we expect a significant increase in traffic flows – both domestically and across borders. Roads will be an essential part of this expansion,” Rama said.

Railways also present investment potential, although Rama acknowledged the sector is more complex and less accessible to private companies.

Turning to energy, the Premier said Albania has launched international calls for private investment in the sector.
