ODŽAK, September 8 (FENA) - Bosnia and Herzegovina will get another border crossing with Croatia this month - the Svilaj interstate bridge in Odžak municipality, one of the most important infrastructure projects on the Vc corridor connecting BiH with Croatia, announced the Posavina Canton government today.
The cantonal government added that the bridge is of strategic importance for the construction o the entire motorway on the Vc corridor.
When operational at full capacity, the bridge will be an important communication link with the corridors and motorway network of European roads, and final preparations are being made for the opening of this modern border crossing.
At the new border crossing, passenger traffic will be separated from freight traffic. In addition, it will have four lanes at the exit from Bosnia and Herzegovina and three lanes at the entry in BiH.
As part of the new border crossing, among other things, facilities were built to accommodate police officers, inspection services, tax services and more.
Of the other significant infrastructural facilities, four overpasses, three underpasses, two loops and a rest area were built on that part of the motorway.
