The road network in Kosovo* has a total length of 8,522 km. Two SEETO routes transit through Kosovo in a North-South and West-East direction: Route 6, which connects Corridor VIII in North Macedonia (Skopje) via Pristina with Route 4 in Montenegro; and Route 7, which links Corridor X in Serbia (Nis) via Pristina with the Adriatic in Albania.
Route 6B (National Road N9), connects Pristina International Airport with Route 7 and continues to Peja and Route 4 in Montenegro.
This WBIF technical assistance grant concerned the preparation of a Detailed Design for the construction of the midsection of Route 6B in Kosovo, from Kijevë/Klina to Zahaq/Zahac, approximately 30 km long. In previous phases, WBIF supported the preparation of the Pre-feasibility Study, Feasibility Study, Preliminary Design and Tender Documents for this section.
* This designation is without prejudice to positions on status, and is in line with UNSCR 1244 and the ICJ Opinion on the Kosovo Declaration of Independence
