China-built highway brings tangible benefits to locals in Montenegro

Meet Goran Janković.
He is a local commander in the Protection and Rescue Service in Montenegro's capital, Podgorica.
Goran lives in a village some 30 kilometers north of downtown Podgorica, where his family owns a small tourist farm.
Before that, it took Goran over an hour to drive to work on the dangerous road of the Morača canyon.
Now, his commute is 20 minutes on a comfortable and most importantly, much safer road.
The infamous Morača Canyon Road is bypassed by this Chinese-built feat of engineering.
It starts at 63 meters above sea level, rising to one thousand meters above sea level over its 41 kilometers.
That difficult construction was just the beginning of this project which is of vital importance for Montenegro.
And the government is already considering the next step.
But financial considerations make future projects more difficult.
The costs of the remaining sections of the highway might be too heavy for Montenegro, but would be popular with people like Goran who says the new highway has already changed lives - for the better.

    BRI, building infrastructures for the countries involved. Curry-powder express, a dream of some delusional people.

    It is not possible to improve road safety in this way- by not wearing a car seat belt :( Bridge for 1 billion, instead of 650 million :(
